thanks for that, i saw not thinking, i still have the gearbox cover off so the brake pedal is not restricted, putting the gearbox cover on will stop the pedal rising so much. stupid no brain moment.

thats what i'm thinking but i'm hoping there is something else that can be done

Folks, The suspension is too low on my trav and she will be going on her first road test tomorrow (providing i don't come across any further bugs). I have released the torsion bar at the rear and pushed the front hubs down as far as they will go then tightened the torsion bar at the rear but she is ...

even with the new looms, green/red is a indicator wire - just did mine last week
