Thanks anyway for the link. Have now received the new collars from David Silvers.

Fitting the new Motad is now proving a challenge....two of the downpipes would not fit into the can without a lot of persuasion, now the pipes (number 2 is worst) do not line up with the cylinders...will try again at the weekend, perhaps a call to Motad is needed.

florence:
no, it is a pain to line it all up, trial and error usually sorts it.  Once it's together I found that if I ever need to take it off do so in one piece.

matthewmosse:
I agree they can be a royal pain to get fitted, but as has been said once fitted they can be removed and fitted as a unit. I found a hide mallett was very usefull, but a bit of wood and hammer might suffice to perswade things to fit.
