Hi thanks for the quick reply don't seem to be getting very far with chopper Manuals,parts lists on all MKs that's why I hope you guys can help. Don't like to mention other sites but is the RCOC now disbanded as most of the Info and links don't work?? Tried to contact the Chopper trader but to no avail as to spares required for the bikes I have just purchased. Any help much appreciated seen Billing Event any other big Events in 2015 as on 36 hr night shifts on that weekend ( flaming typical and that's being polite).

Welcome to the site! Yes the RCOC is long gone.... That's why we are here! There's many things to learn, although there are books like 'John Lees Restoration' one, this isn't something I would recommend. For parts I recommend contacting greeno - www.youngs-cycles.co.uk

Thanks jake B
Too late mate already bought the book poor images though,thanks for the link though will check it out when back off shifts. As to good Quality sevice books, shop keeper info on spares/repairs is this available via the club?? I did see a thread containing a book on Caring for your chopper,probably issued with all new bikes from Raleigh can they be sourced tried looking no luck at present though. jake are there other big meets this year as can't get to Billing due to 36 hr night shift pattern can't get swaps due to our tight work pattern.??
