I have my 250 caliper in bits at the moment steve ,but not sure when I'll get it renovated and ready to bleed up.
Are they a different size in the 400 caliper?

That's odd, I've fitted 8mm stainless bleed nipples in my 400NA & 250NB. I think they're all from the same supplier, but I'll check my invoices. Anyway, if you want to send one to me Steve, I'll test it.

my 250 one is from a `79 model, I wonder if they made them all the same with later models.

Could you make the banjo bolts, Steve? For some reason, these seem hard to get. Wemoto list one for the SD, but it's way too short. It might fit, but I wouldn't be happy with the amount of thread left to tighten up. Let's see 2 400s, that's 4 for the calipers & 2 for the m/cylinders, plus another 2 for the 250, and 2 for the 500 plus a couple of spares - I'd have a dozen  |

Re the different part nos for the nipples- remember the 250 had a different lineage to the 400. 400 had NISSIN calipers....
