Clutch jet

Can anyone tell me the size of the clutch jet I should be using in the Falco as the upgrade to make neutral easier.
Can someone also let me know where to get hold of them (I've heard talk of Griff but don't know if this is old news or if he's still the man).
If anyone knows the link to the thread about changing this please could you post it.
I know this has been asked many times but I've done a search in here and couldn't find anything (too preoccupied with sourcing parts for my ever growing list of Falco-jobs
)

Ok, assuming it's the 0.4 clutch jet I want I've found it (I was looking on AF1 not on apriliaperformance).
If anyone can link one of the threads about fitting that would be handy (I as I recall it's a piece of p*ss if you use the correct screwdriver)

Yeah give Griff (or one of his oppos) a ring at Aprilia Performance and ask for a 0.4 clutch oil jet.
If you speak to him, be sure to address him as Mr Jackson and compliment him on his new haircut.
Make sure you give the codeword: "Mumbles Castle"
..... though if you speak to his staff they may not understand any of this except for the bit about the clutch jet.

Cheers for that d-rider, I'll give him a call early next week and pass on your best. Unfortunately I won't be able to say anything about his haircut as I got mine done yesterday and I must have somehow upset the barber as I now look like I have a slightly camp mohican.
Has anyone fitted one of these oberon clutch slave cylinders? Any good? I'm tryign to wrestle another £100 out of my wallet, unfortunately it's not playing ball this soon after Christmas.

Oh I think that Mr Jackson would love to be spoken to formally - he knows that all of us on ridersite are always polite and he does appreciate it
(just tell him that ridersite sent you - seriously.... !)

I may well go and buy myself a pink hat like that, slightly more dignified to cover up the abomination on my head.
