I can't see the pics. It does sound like repro parts are getting worse.

The post has vanished! There were 2 pics of a destroyed thrust bearing and adjuster bolts in a dexta clutch that lasted 2 hours after fitting the wrong bearing

New lever screws needed too. What a disastrous bearing, it shouldn't be that difficult for them to make the correct bearing.

From Finland I can't find any dealer where to buy new lever screws. Do anyone have ideas where to order those screws in europe?
