carby ss was dead on the button last week, tried the usual suspects and decided the brushes had thrown their hand in, they were the originals so 32 y/o, mate kevinr flagged up these guys and have to say totally satisfied. £15 inc p+p was a bit fiddly reinstalling new plate & brushes in situ but got their eventually, fired up first prod just in time for the rain to arrive, ah well, can't win 'em all. https://www.motoelectrical.co.uk/pr...ucFACi1jbYmIekN9KeMcXzhUlNp1oLl4aAnwqEALw_wcB
That's a very good deal, I bought them from Electrex World and they were about £30 from memory. Being able to replace them in situ makes it quite a fiddly, but easy job
being a tight wad (with 4 ducs!) I have to shop around for the most afffordable bits, hence the purchase, package said made in Brazil, who knows how long it might last, it's not as if the bike gets used every day and I don't expect it will last as long as the OE parts, and if they do last I'll be long gone by then.
