Hows this for a pricing went to local Yamaha dealer, wanted just one double brake banjo bolt for the master cylinder, $19.00 Australian dollars, ordered the whole three bolts plus copper washers from the U.K. Venhill brand (Ebay 180508407137) much better looking/chrome, price 12.45 GBP or $21.35 Australian, the price of spares here is just plain robbery, Trinity.

I have to say the price that some people expect for spares, even second hand, is a tad ridiculous. The spares do come up if you wait but the price range is diabolical. Some people will ask £10 for the same thing others are asking £60 for!!!!

Had to spit the dummy, took the bikes of the road (winter) for repairs/service etc, the bolt is only one of the items I rejected from Yamaha, Tomster what do you mean at the bottom of your posts " is it bait time yet " are you a fisherman?? trinity.

hahaha. Yeah I am a fisherman, but that isn't the origin of the saying. In my area "bait" is a term used for the food you eat during a break from work so "bait time" is when you have your work break.
