A lever and its mounting bracket plus a fluid reservoir from what i can see
 
Milleboy,

I would recommend a genuine brake lever. I have heared a few people mention they have had issues with patterned levers.


Cheers,

Ritch
 
As Ritch says don't buy a pattern lever, they can be dangerous as they are not built to the same tollerances as the original Brembo ones and can lock on !! Buy a genuine one new or used. A universal brake pot? RSVR.net have the correct complete front brake fluid reservoirs for £17.57

Or you could go to you local dealer and get one for £17.04 :biggrin


Part number 3: Clicky click click


Dunno what it is with RSVR.NET, everything seems to be dearer than my local dealer ??? and by the time you've add P&P it starts to work out very expensive. Dont all Aprilia parts have a set price ?


Cheers,


Ritch

£14.05 plus VAT Ritch and Aprilia Yorkshire are renowned for being very very slow for delivery. RRP for the genuine fluid reservoir is £20.97 as far as i can tell. Maybe your dealer is discounting his parts :dunno

With all their history and current problems milliesteve is having with Apriliayorkshire I wouldn't touch them with a bargepole.
