Does anyone know of a cloned source of workshop tools for Hinckley triples? I need tool no. 3880012 (valve adjustment tool for holding down the valve springs while changing shims) and reckon the price main dealers charge, which is over £60, is a bit of a laugh for three bits of angle iron.
Cheers, Vigneron.

It's a bit more than 3 bits of "angle iron" its a quite nicely finished milled set of parts. However, we do have a design for a home made equivalent in the downloads section if you are interested in saving money by fabricating your own.

Alternatively you can use the Haynes method and remove the cams thereby removing the need for a tool.
