M900 rear axle needed urgently

[Paranoid Dave]

Can anyone help, suggest a place to find one. I really want to get it before next thursday and a new one is £50 :eek:

What diameter as I would gather they may be different. Is it the early type alloy like my 900 with the two nuts or later type swingarm. I may be talking dogs bits but best ask before I go hunting. :D

It's the early one so 16mm diameter and about 350mm in length. I think I'll need the nuts to fit the end too but they are easier to get hold of.

I guess it's stating the obvious, but have you had a ring round the breakers?

not yet, I may try a couple in the morning but my experience of them is not good. Lots of 600's but no 900's. When I needed the swingarm adjusters I eventually found NASH MILLS breakers and spoke to someone who sold me a pair of them, we measured and they seemed right. I asked if they were yellowy gold ends not gery "oh yes" how does £20 sound.

When I got them they were grey ends and for a 600, not only that but they'd put on the bill, £20 pus £10 postage for a jiffy bag and a few stamps and then totalled up and with VAT ON TOP they charged me £35 for something they knew I wouldn't want! :mad: In the end I did use the bolts from them so not totally lost but do I really want to do it all again?

Guess I'll have to but as the 600 spindle is very similar to the 900 I'm worried about the same happening again.
