Wanted: Silvertop-compatible valve spring compressor

Postby Mattijs » Thu May 23, 2013 3:00 pm

Hi does anyone nearby have a valve spring compressor that I could borrow? It needs to be big enough to tackle a Silvertop, cos that's what I got :D

Thanks, thanks, thanks!

I might have one that would suit a Silvertop, what size do you need?

I knew you wouldn't be able to resist taking it apart, after all there are still two weeks to go!

Cheers, Tony, size-wise, I need one that fits :) Don't know how big yet, because I haven't taken it apart yet. Will do that now. Here goes nothing!

Cheers, Matt, I'll try Tony's frst, since he's just around the corner...

Mr B, no worries, can't really be smoking up and down the Alps, can I now? I know you never follow me, but if the impossible happens you'll thank me.

Just need some stretch bolts, and the job's a good'un. Whatever could go wrong? It's just undoing and redoing bolts!
