When I first bought my Falco, the old ARS forum had a number of reports of slave cylinder failiures on it. So I immediately set about getting myself a spare off e-bay (£5 complete with braided hose, would you believe??)
Now at 18k the original is still 100% OK and the spare has probably now got hardened seals it's been sat in the cuboard for so long
So why do I want the MPL one??? simple it's "da bling" factor. Like DR I watch them all, just waiting for the elusive "it'll go for £45" one.
I did actually miss one for £46 last year but again like DR I wont go above my limit (and no I won't tell anyone what that is) but I use auction snipe and my inbox is littered with "Bid too low" reports. So I'll keep going and one day bore you all to death with "how cheap I got a MPL slave cylinder for"
