Oddjob:
Zinc plated bits arrived today, cheers Roo.

Sesman:
Oh aye. That’s smart. Did you paint it yerself?

Oddjob:
The only problem with those hose clamps Roo is that if you're using braided steel lines they don't exactly fit them. The rubber lines are much thicker and sit snug in those but braided don't.

I intend to reduce the hole in mine so they fit better.

Laverdaroo:
I've overcome thst buy aquiring some from my contact at HEL who fit them on the VFR set up. They fit the hoops on the mudguard and are a really nice fit with a bit of initial fiddling to get them sited. I was lookig at a spare set up I had and had a lightbulb moment which saved reducing anything to fit. Seemed to be thep ath of least resistance.

Oddjob:
Post a pic of these magical pieces Roo, I may be able to blag a pair from my contact at HEL before they ship my brake lines for the 1300.
