Astrax fuel tap bowls

Post by yeadon_m »

Folks,
I noticed that one of my GTs had a fuel tap with a deeper bowl than the others. Turns out Ian / Astrax makes both types, and he includes a pressed-in magnet, so I bought 3 :-)
Nice and shiny!
Cheers,
Mike
ps: I can also vouch for the stainless oil line banjos. Much nicer looking than the daft, hollow headed zinc plated OE stuff.

Yeah! My gt550A model is meant to have a shallow one but as I like a bit of bling i got the deeper one, something for the purists to spot!
Well made nice pieces of kit! ;)

Hi Mike

Glad they fitted ok and that you are pleased with them, I also have a deeper one on my 750B, did a few in brass.
Stocks were running a bit low, started making some more of the shallow and deeper ones, the deeper ones are also the same for the Kawasaki H1 & H2's.

This is the first batch one on the new machine, reprogrammed to suit the machine and have to say, really pleased how they have come out, just need to mill the hexagon on and that's them done, machined about 30 of each, which should keep me going for a few months.

Nope, I'm not good at sharing...... :D

Have to say it is a good toy to play with, better to watch than the telly.
