Cheers Bilc0
Bill Pye was out of stock so I phoned around and got the gear lever from Bob Wright Motorcycles, you need to take a shaving off the plastic side casing as its a very tight fit (which I wasnt that happy about) but to be honest you can hardly even notice,I think it was £23.50 and gives it a nice finish. Im getting my 240 rebuilt by Bill just now and should be getting it back if its done in time at the Scottish Six Days, also just took on a 300 that needs tons of work but where theres a will theres a way.

Lee,you are a jealous Man,just because i've got more of a collection of Naff gear lever's than you have Naff carb's. :thumbup:
Are you all packed up for Exmoor yet.

Hi russellD.
You was lucky bill was out of stock,he get's he's levers made up somewhere and it would of cost you £30,the one you have looks much much better.

Nice work Russell. An expensive one by the looks of it - but worth every penny when you see it like that.

TY 175 gear leaver fits the 200 perfectly. Steve Goode has them. Being alloy if it takes a wack it wont damage the steel spline. Will try to post a picture.
