Yes and I like the spray job. :thumbsup:
Bit of advice. Buy a good bed and a good pair of shoes, because if you aren't in one you'll be in the other.

Just been on phone to my local bike shop to see if they could get the seal kit and they say the slave master system is on the handle bars :/ I don't think they know much about bikes. Is that kit definitely the right one if I order it from eBay? Many thanks

If its leaking from the bottom slave unit like you say then that's the one you need. When you catch up with things you could always change the one on the handlebars just for peace of mind. Then you know that job is all sorted. :nod:

As Teego says, the SLAVEcylinder is bolted onto the sprocket cover of the engine, as shown in Nuggit's beautiful, quality photo!

Yeah I think that will probably be the best and most sensible thing to do. I shall give them a ring tomorrow. Cheers lads. Do you have a Facebook page? Or is it just this forum?
