Had a result today!
Upon chewing the fat with a fellow frozen daft biker in the cheddar gorge this afternoon, talking about all things SOHC (he turned up on a mint 500). I was boring him to sleep regarding the carb issues I’ve had and breather fittings etc when he said he had a bunch of old bits n bobs back home and sure he could cannibalise something for me.

Sure enough, pulled from a stripped carb outside in a bucket of water…….one breather angle. And it fits a treat. Winning!  Cheers for that Dave. Aren’t bikers bloody marvellous?

Found this today also hiding in amongst the 550 bits, the long lost tacho cable holder for Chewy. Knew I had one!

Two out of three isn’t bad but I’ve been cleaning and batching things to get plated, replaced etc and what I thought was a reasonably good rear brake pedal, spring has  been reduced to this!

I happened upon this one for a K3 I think, wondering if I could somehow nanny it to work but I don’t think it’ll be a goer now the two are next to each other.


I know these are unobtainable now so has anybody had any luck finding/making/modifying anything to suit without reinventing the wheel?
