    What a nice man.

    I/D: 35mm
    O/D: 48mm
    Depth: 10.5mm (?[1])

    [1] Might be 11. It's a tad mangled...

    All GS550 models
    XT125

    This is a regular size too. Fitments include:

    I'm bored with listing them now, but the last one is what made me
    remember that size from the depths of this highly fucked memory. They
    are the same size as any model of RD350 Powervalve's fork seals. Any
    decent Yamaha dealer or a Honda dealer will have them in stock.
    Alternatively, try your local bearing supplier with those dimensions to
    hand.

    I've found an oil pump cover. Could be a 185, could be a 250.

    And I've got the clutch out of the 185. [1,2] There's a spare clutch
    lever too.

    Also some of those big rubbery grommet things, and some other bits.

    I'll draw up a list - are you in next weekend?

    As an aside - anyone got one of those infodisk thingies? I want to
    cure a mild dose of paranoia.

    Blokey wot won the Kwak is sending a B/S cheque, then (when it's
    cleared) arranging for the bike to be collected by courier. Blimey.
    Not cheap - but surely a better bet than riding it back to Carlisle.

    [1] Plates look in pretty good nick.
    [2] Top tip - drain the oil first, next time. 23 year old oil is very
    smelly.

    Cool! I should be around on the Sunday. Saturday I'll be assisting in a
    certain domestic logistical exercise, but I won't be a million miles
    away.

    Heh. It is. Not next week though. Next week includes a three-day
    quarterly sales meeting in Barcelona. Fortunately the quack agreed that
    if anything was likely to cause a relapse, that was it...

    Equally fortunately, the grown-ups at my company are being very
    understanding.
