Not good mate, think that the bay might be the best place to get a replacement.
I bet you said 'Darn' and 'Oh fiddle' or similar :(
Kin cheers.....
Bad luck (again) Luc. Same fit as several other Ks.
£40 - 60 single, £100 - 150 pair.
Manged to find a replacement for 40 quid so not to bad .but it's bleeding the darn things .try again onwards and upwards ☺
I love, not !, bleeding brakes...
Pesky ruddy things.
Keep at it and good luck.
Thanks Lt ☺
I like to move them every service, beats the corrosion also keeps the fluid fresh. working on a customers Triumph at the weekend, did 800 miles last year and bleed screws moved nice and easy. its the ones that dont get used or moved that I hate as I know who has to repair them!!
If you haven't already got, have a look at the vacuum bleeders, i have a cheapo one like this https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Hand-Held...tmyS:rk:3:pf:0 and it makes it so easy.
All fixed now have front brakes again .can't wait till rideouts😊😆
:cool:
