Just about to buy a new slave, which cover is the best to buy as a best fit option for the new slave fitment.

Tuono gen 1 or mille gen 1.

the tuono part is cheaper than the mille one.....
Let's face it, you wouldn't go to a nurse to get good advice on a problem with a Falco - you'd choose an Engineer or a mechanic...

It's been a long time since you could legally buy and sell slaves - no wonder you want a cover to hide your nefarious activities.
As Pete said - Tuono one - about half the price of the identical Mille one.

Second question, has anyone bought a Factory Racing clutch slave cylinder from Motopike via e-bay for £50 or have you been outbid at the last minute.

I've always been outbid. But tbh I can live with the clutch for the time being.

Think it was Dalemac that mentioned Motorpike list a lot of clutch slaves on ebay a lot finishing on sunday so a lot is down to timing.
Also dont forget about Oberon or MPL Tuning

Got one, I was just beginning to wonder if they were listing and buying back if the price didn't rise but I have one now so no bother.
I just need a cover and their out of stock.

Really? I'd be very surprised if no Aprilia stockests have got one.
