Hello
Thank you for your help regarding the restoration of my 31K (especially the problems of the calipers seals). I am trying to insert the photos because my usual web host does not work here.imgur.com/a/q1Ksxg5

How do I see the photo directly? On the page with your picture there is a "Share" Icon but no BBCode link so you might be better using Flikr for forums etc. Flikr has easy links that you can copy and paste into your post. |

A friend disassembled the engine, once the measurements made, practically no play on the crankshaft and the pistons are in original dimension. This proves the low mileage. For safety, I change the pistons and the crankshaft, all these parts are 37 years old.  Moteur 2 by Jamy13 Le Luberon, sur Flickr The pistons,a little bit of cutting to segments. The cylinders measure 64.01, + honing of the cylinders, and so I’m using new 63.96 pistons Pistons and crankshaft were purchased from EMAC (FRANCE)  Moteur 3 by Jamy13 Le Luberon, sur Flickr  Moteur 4 by Jamy13 Le Luberon, sur Flickr Engine up and repainted  Moteur 5 by Jamy13 Le Luberon, sur Flickr  Moteur 6 by Jamy13 Le Luberon, sur Flickr |

Restoration of swingarm joints  The axis is rusty so to change.  New rings have been machined from copper   The arm shafts were rusted as often on these motorcycles. Steel bushings were inserted and machined. IMG_2391 by Jamy13 Le Luberon, sur Flickr I chose a HAGON damper, a good compromise in my opinion.  |

Some lovely work there. I've just done a set of wheels myself. It took a few days for sure. Worth it in the end |

There are some on ebay and from Norbo, but quite a few of them do weep Ive found.
A new OEM master cylinder that will take your old lid (the one with it is different) is available. About US$150 in USA.
I like the pics of the purple frame, reminded me when I got my F1 that the DPO had painted the frame silver and the bodywork black with cans. He had removed the bodywork but painted the frame 'as-is', there are plenty of pics on my old website of the loom and other parts like the header tank in metallic silver, which prompted people to ask if they were alloy lol.
