350 Kick Starts - last one sold at Mdina Italia

Morning All,

Friend of mine just bought the last remaining kick start pedal from Mdina Italia. Unless anyone knows of an alternative source, looks like they are going to be scarce.

Anyone know of an alternative supplier?

Non resistor plug caps needed

Hi, anyone know where I can buy non-resistor plug caps?

Straight would be OK, or a 45 degree angle.

All suggestions greatly appreciated,

Thanks,

Bob

You can get a copy of the "Blue Book" from the National Motorcycle Museum:

Re: strada top yokes

Not sure if this is any use, but I wanted to be more upright on my Sport, so I bought a set of swan necks from Barleycorn Engineering. They fitted directly onto the existing forks.

350 Sport: What battery?

Hi Everyone, Hope you can guide me on this. What is the correct battery for the 350 Sport (it's a 1983 K2)? My one - which was being turned into a classic track bike by the previous owner - features a tiny, solid state thing. We *think* it is the battery for an alarm system! So OK to power clocks an...

Re: Brake caliper bolts: I know someone who can make them

To show the standard of Dave's work, I've added here brake and gear pedals he hand-tooled for me. Brake pedal smaller so the kickstart pedal can clear.

I'll add a further post with bolt pix when I can.

Brake caliper bolts: I know someone who can make them

Hi All, I needed new bolts for the Sport's calipers. The parts aren't listed, so Mdina struggled. Luckily, I'd been put in touch with Dave Hopwood at Hoppybikes ( http://www.hoppybikes.co.uk/frame.htm ), who is sorting the front end and electrics for me. Dave has his own forge, so he's made bolt bla...

NLM parts catalogue?

Hi All, Wondered if anyone has a copy of NLM's parts catalogue? Mdina Italia don't have one in stock... which makes it a bit tricky at times to search for parts. I have an '83 K2 Sport, currently being worked on, so it'd be handy to have NLM's part numbers as they work on Mdina's site. Cheers, Bob

Re: 350 Sport (K2, 1983 model): Brake caliper nuts & bolts

Hi Steve, Thanks for getting back to me. Oddly, I thought the thread looked OK, but I've had a couple of people mention it. The Sport has gone to a classic bike rebuilder local to me: He reckons he can tidy up that pivot bolt, otherwise he could fashion a new one if he can't source a spare from his ...

350 Sport (K2, 1983 model): Brake caliper nuts & bolts

Hi, my names Bob, I'm new to the forum. I inherited a 1983 K2 350 Sport. Sadly it's been sitting around for a while and has needed some parts replacing. Think I'm about there, but the bolts and nuts on both brake calipers are looking VERY tired, to the point I'm not sure they'll pass MOT. I've tried...
