Try GPC Luton - they trade as Chubnut999 on ebay but should be cheaper if you ring - 01462 768500 or 01462 768501

Thanks everyone!  :D

I tried Chubnut and he cant get hold of them any longer.  

I then called Big Boys Toys and they have put one on order for me and i should get it in a month! They ship them in apparently.
If anyone wants one, dont buy from ebay because they want £35.00 on ebay and iv just got this one from big boys toys for £16.00! Mint! 8)

Got the new radiator on Friday. I had the fan cowling blasted and powder coated a few weeks ago. Really happy with the finish they did.  :D

Had an attemp to get the gearbox in through the top. Gearbox was too big! So had to go in through the n/s wheel arch underneath.

It looks a bit shabby to me. You could have given the engine a bit of a clean before fitting the gear box.

Ha ha!  Sorry.  I will get the gearbox out again and give the engine a good clean!  :wink:

Im dreading the wiring loom bit!  Just hope i can make all the wires and cables etc tidy. If i dont, it will spoil what i have done i think.

Can you buy wire tidy kits for these does anyone know?
