Sorry meant to attach picture. Doh!

Try long straight HT caps on the inners Johnny and use the clips on the breather cover to hold them in place. You can also use clips for the outers, just position them on the cover bolts.

I actually tried the longer angled cap on No 2 cylinder and it worked perfect. Need to try No 3 where the tacho drive is.

Decided to have a go at the swingarm bushes today, all came apart without too much hassle. Not the best looking collar but well within spec. Will clean up and degrease all parts and fit new bushes supplied by nurse Julie. Quite pleased to see some grease in there.

I need to replace clutch and throttle cabled on the 550 which I’m calling a K0.5. The year of manufacture suggests it’s a K0 but the numbers suggests it’s a K1 makes no difference to me but one thing I’m going to definately change is the handlebars. The ones on it are horrible. I’m thinking from a 550f as I want to retain the concealed wires from the switches. I notice that you can buy new bars of this type, has anybody tried them?
