wanted T500 choke connecting rod

Post by stupot »

I seem to have lost a rare and unique part. Ive had my carbs off the bike for some time now and a few garage clean outs and repositioning of my bikes over time have resulted in me miss placing the carb choke lever connecting rod.
I was wondering if anyone has a spare which I could buy.
I could make one from a piece of welding rod but ide rather buy a genuine one first before i go down that route.

Sorry for the long tine in replying ive been drinking with my mates in Lytham st Annes for the weekend.
Ive just got back , I knew you had replied with your kind offer seeing it on my moblie but i couldnt acknowledge because i dont know my password for this forum.
YES Please I will send you PM with my details.
Im sure thats the correct gauge but as my Verneir Calopian Giggly tump is imperialistic and not even digitdlium then I used my rule of thumb to asses the correct DIA and yes its going slide into position perfectly.
Best regards Stupot.

Hi Neil. Your spokes arrived today and ive allready tried one and it fits perfectly so thankyou your very kind .
ive been tinkering with the carbs, I know how its been miss placed , some how ive ended up with two left choke lever assemblys , so somewhere in the world someone will have two right hand choke assemblys LOL.
Luckily i have a spare set of carbs and ive managed to swap the correct left and right levers onto the carbs im using and with the missing rod spoke now supplied i will have a full set.
