Electrex world, the M&P ones are shite.

Rainham Kent is where i grew up, most of my family are still there including my daughter, i don't get down there enough.

Looking at selling this, It owes me £110. it's a tokiko 5/8 A2 twin disc, been re-sleeved in stainless, new o ring between reservoir and body new piston and seals, painted. full working order now. what's a fair price for it?

Thank you Phillipe, i have no spray equipment so cannot do it the same way, i will be moving the M.C on after i have finished the re-furb and the only reason for the re-furb is that the non obtanium diaphragm is in perfect condition.

Just re-furbing an A2 master cylinder what's the best paint finish for leaving it looking standard?

It's gone to past parts, it would of gone in the bin but the non obtainable diaphragm is like new and would have been a shame, so i will rebuild it and sell it.

Thanks Bill.

I had to change the master cylinder on my bike, so i bought a 5/8 round one, all fitted in and bled in no time, the cylinder that i removed is an A2 5/8 one and the inner sleeve is shot, the rest is all good including the non obtainium diaphragm, so does anyone know where or who re-sleeves these if ...

I love it the only trouble i find is i think i tend to over ride it as im used to all my old bangers :D ie it doesn't need forcing into corners and the controls are so light clutch throttle and brakes two finger jobs etc but after a few miles your wondering why you ride the others until you get hom...

Certain carbs have short pilot jets, the spare set i have for the ltd models have long pilot jets, the ones on my bike are from an A2 have the short jets and it used to have a ltd stand and when left on the side stand it would stall, got an A2 stand and that cured the problem.

They are for Z1000-A1, the position of the air/fuel mixture screw gives it away. I’d suggest the restored set is £175-200 but would be best to advertise stating of unkown condition. So many of these restored carbs are rubbish and don’t perform on the bike. A1 did not have vacuum tap, that came in o...

2nd pic has a vacuum stub for tap on number three would say Z1000 A2.

Will post you one in the morning Paul, already packed, it was me you got them from last time.
