With many thanks to George 350 I now have the collets and a fully functioning front exhaust! I now need help to source a pair of half rings that fit the "square" section flange to replace the ones George sent to me today. Any leads on finding replacements welcomed.

Hi everyone, I need a pair of exhaust collets for my 1978 350 sport. Lost them when the castle nut worked itself completely loose on recent ride along the A3! Grateful for any help in locating a new or used pair to get me back up and running, really need them quickly as I am due to ride her over on ...

Here are the pictures.

I think the gasket is still there, so I think all I need are the 2 half collets.

As Mike says, the half collets. Trouble is they come in about 3 or 4 variations! The shape and dimensions of the flange on the end of the pipe determine which you'll need. If you can post a pic (I never can) or a drawing with dimensions of the pipe it will make things easier. I may even have some t...

As I was riding home from the Corsaro section gathering in Alton last weekend my 350 sport became very loud as I rode up the A3. I was just a mile from home so rode back. Once home the reason for the noise was obvious, as the castle nut on the front exhaust was sitting on the down pipe near my toes....

Thanks for all the advice. Between Mdina Italia (front sprocket) and B&C Express (rear sprocket and x-ring chain) I have found what I need. 4 to 5 week wait for the sprocket to be machined, while I am at it I'll be changing tyres to Avon Roadrider MKII and should be ready for the end of lockdown...

Thanks Mark, I had looked at Mdina Italia and saw they were out of stock. I have now sent a request for info to B&C for a 520 sprocket to my cast wheel. Mike Hi Mike, Mdina Italia would normally have them. https://www.mdinaitalia.co.uk/M43064138520.html. If that's the right bolt pattern anyway. ...

During lockdown I am trying to get a few jobs done and am slowly working my way through things. I have just fitted a few small items that came from Start Gomma in less than a week (kick start and clutch actuator rubbers). I am now thinking about chain and sprockets, would like to try a 520 conversio...

I think I messed up and PM'd myself!

I have just sent a new PM to you.

Sorry for the mix up.

Mike

I have a non working electric tacho, it may be from a 500 though it was on my 350. PM me if you are interested.

Mike

I bought a pair from Mdina in December and they appear to be very good. Fitting them really improved the running of my previously lumpy Sport.

Mike

So glad that I rode down on the sport today. Amazing riding weather and great group of people to chat with. Looking forward to next month already.

Mike

What time do you meet? I may be able to ride my Sport down from Surrey depending on when you will be there.

Thanks,

Mike
