Wanted URGENTLY!!!!!

#1 Post by Nooj » Thu May 10, 2007 8:19 pm

Double banjo bolt (to take two brake lines) with a 1mm pitch thread for my Falco. I've got a track day on Friday 18th May next week, so I need this to be in my hand by Wednesday at the latest!

Can anyone help?

ANY bike shop does them. Couple of quid (3 or so?). That would be quickest.

That is if you mean the long bolt that holds banjo bolts to the master cylinder. Take your old (short) one to the shop, ideally with the old hoses (width of banjo bolts may vary). If you can't, measure everything. They will help you out.

I rang round ProBike Yamaha, Bikewise Aprilia, Bikers Aprilia and Southern Cross Aprilia. ProBike had one but the thread pitch was wrong, Southern Cross said they had one, but haven't got back to me (too late for the missus to pick it up on the way home now), Bikewise didn't have one and Bikers only stock official parts.

I tried an autofactor, they didn't know what I was on about. I tried an engineering supplier, they could get one in but it'd take seven working days.

In the end I ordered one from HEL which I didn't want to do as I don't trust the Royal Snail to deliver it in time. I bloody hope it gets here.
