Re-plating of Linkages etc - UK Company

#1 Post by V4 Heaven » Tue May 22, 2012 8:37 am

Hi all,

My RD is now in bits awaiting a long overdue tidy up. I'd like to have the carb linkages and YPVS linkages replated.

What is the correct colour, is this zinc plating and is there anyone in the UK that you would recommend?

Finally, at the top of the rear mudguard, there are two small, triangular type heat shields on either side which are make from heat resistant material. Are these still available or can you get replacements?

Thanks.
