Tlr To Rtl Upgrade

Finally I got the opportunity to buy my dad's old RTL back. Dad rode this one for twelve years as his only bike. It's a little reworked but it doesn't matter. Anyone else who has a Nigel Birkett brakes conversion?

I have been doing a check up on everything and the only thing that is really worn is the fork springs. I saw that they had a ND9 number, so it should be hard to find new ones. Anyone who knows where I can get hold of new ones or are there any replacement or pattern parts available?

I also want to save my original rear fender, are there any replacements around?

Mudgards contact Dave Renham at Bultaco UK. I have had 4 rears off him.

The quality is pretty good and at 42 pounds not too expensive.

WES do some replacement trials springs which will probably fit.

Alternatively talk to a local engineering firm that makes springs, even one off's are relatively cheap providing you knoe I/D, O/D and rate.
