parts on flea bay

I have just spent a Saturday night peering at my computer screen, waiting for an auction to close.
This was for yet another 11/16th master cylinder and twin callipers. The bidding quickly went to a crazy level for the master cylinder so I gave up on that early on. I don't see the point of paying nearly £100 for an item which can be bought new for thirty quid more. The last one I lost out on went for £61 and that was with the clutch lever and bracket included. It also looked to be in much better condition.
I did win the callipers for £102 as opposed to over £400 for new. So, that is a much better price and worth getting second hand. This morning I went on to Jersey HD's web site and ordered a master cylinder.
Nearly there with all the bits and pieces for the front end.
Better start saving to pay for the fabrication!
