Is that on a Mk111 850 ?

If so, even easier - 3/8" UNF

Also applies to pre-MkIII type.

3/8" UNF being the normal hydraulic thread fitting size for Nortons/Triumphs.

Thanks, Mr B., I thought it was but couldn't check quickly. I have a suspicion that Lockheed always used UNF up until the late '70s. Thank goodness they didn't choose that nasty tapered National Pipe.

I've complicated life for myself by fitting one of those Variable Ratio Master Cylinders and they had gone continental by then. The hydraulic unions are ok using stainless - still 1/2" AF but I have to carry a metric (ugh, wash my mouth out with soap and water) spanner for the lever and clamps.
