    This week I had to buy new brake pistons and seals for my 1982 XJ650/750, model 4K0. I emailed Yambits http://yambits.co.uk/login.php?osCsid=9mc25e9jk827bbvufrm8fr81v3 who are near Harrogate in North Yorkshire. I supplied my frame number, they confirmed the parts would fit, and I ordered them online at about 2:30 on Friday afternoon. At 9:30 am on Saturday morning, the postie knocked on my front door. My parts had arrived.

    The bike's now back together ready for a test ride.

    I wouldn't recommend purchasing the XJ650 Swing Arm Repair kit, from Yambits. I did and it cost £29.09 inc. postage. The bearings and oil seals are not branded, probably Chinese.

    Went to the UK North East branch of Antifriction and purchased 2 Timken bearings and 2 SKF oil seals for £29.77.

    Just thought that I'd like to share this experience in the hope that you don't waste nearly £30 like I did.
