Nice I will check this out.Thankyou!

 

Got a set still in the bag Custom Chrome # 36-108, was the popular kit back when, replaces the hydraulic insert in the lifter body, stock pushrods. Looks like but much cleaner than the ebay offerings

Edit just checked shipping ouch, the colony kit is the same as the CCI I have.

 

Thankyou TwiZted.I may reach out t you.I have been wondering about these Ebay offerings as you say. Anybody ever try them?

 

Most of the old stock shovel stuff is pretty much of common origin like these inserts, they all came from the same supplier just branded differently. Ebay isn't a bad deal on stuff like this if you can get the shipping right, have to watch that closely as it varies a LOT, sometimes they want more to ship than the parts worth, others send for free for a few bucks more price wise.

Do your homework and read the fine print in the ad's. Like mine, it'd cost $31 to ship to you for a $10 part.

Check these out, used this brand before.

Oh yes I am very familiar with the Ebay dealings.A few years ago I restored a 1966 Yamaha YM1 and unfortunately there was no Taiwan Ted for that bike.

 

Original paint and patina so I left it like that.I know not a shovel so enough about that.

 

Oh jesus my first bike back in 1970 was a 1966 YD3, looked just like that

 

Exactly.Cool piece of engineering in some respects for its day but can you believe they hadn't figured out yet to put the clutch on the input shaft of the tranny instead of the end of the crank?
