    That's what i was gonna do, while sorting the lines out. But the Zlet doesn't look like you can.
    I wanted to do the Clet/xe way use the 8v pipe and remove the sandwich plate. But there is none of that on a let. The plate seems to be all part of the pump.

    Plus i dont know how hot it gets, never run one with the xe, but did with the let just cause of more heat....

    Zlet is still a sandwich plate is it not? Could always loop the lines back on themselves by the pump.

    Mine runs about 90psi cold and when revving and drops to about 50psi.

    Yeah looks just like the C just no screw in pipe bit. And yeah i could, that is another way.
    I'll see what the guy at the hose place says and when he can make me some... If not i'll loop them on sat/sunday.

    Hhmm seems i missed an small update.

    Had new lines made up. New lines rated to 400psi and crimped ends.





    Very stiff, but got them all tucked away. Done about 300miles since and they've been fine.

    Always fancied a set of these, so when i saw some pop up on ebay i had to have them... Spent a bit to much really.





    Had a plan to open then up and maybe make another pair.
    Then i took the really really badly cut glass out, they are full of fiber glass. Bit disappointed with them really. The adjustment doesn't work at all either.
    So think i will make my self another pair and do it right, plastic welded them all up. That way they'll all work correct.

    I saw those mirrors on eBay I think Benn. If you look at the diagonal line that goes up to the right it stops about 3/4 from the top. Where as if you look at a standard mirror the diagonal line goes from corner to corner if you know what I mean.
    looks as though they have cut a couple of inches from the middle then stuck the end back on. Shame really but I'm sure you'll do a much better job.
    Life is not a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and proclaiming, “DAMN, what a ride!!”

    Can you not start a dispute about the mirrors and recoup some money back or all your money back and return them

    Having fitted them, i think you're right. the ends are more rounded I can't really work out what they've done. as they are shorted than std mirrors but in a odd way.
