I had a nice ride out in the sun today..Only slightly spoilt by my choke lever disintegrating about a mile before home...
I trudged up and down the lane and found the brass top plate and the curved spring 'disc' that fits under it but no sign of the retaining bolt unfortunately..
So, has anyone out there got a spare, good condition, hex. head, brass, Bowden marked, lever bolt for sale...?...Contact me if you have!...Ian

Hi Ian, I don't know if you still need one but I came across this specimen today whilst tidying my shed.
Chrome plated, appears to be 1/4" 26tpi.

To 'future proof' myself against a similar loss I would still like to buy another of these lever bolts, as shown in Robs photo, if anyone has a good, undamaged one spare...Ian

Ian, you sound like me with the headlamp switches. It's amazing how they launch into orbit. I'm actually amazed that they don't use rigid motorcycles rather than expensive rockets for putting satellites up.
Hi Ian,
just had a look in my pot and found five new ones-
There are some new springs aswell.
I will gladly post some to you if you want.
Cheers, Mick.
