Yeah fella, there's an 12 mm one on ebay so I'll measure mine later.

Got it running today but now it's blown the fuse ! So fault finding begins,  wonderful.

Rectifier diode eh ? Not sure where it is but there's a silver case with fins on and one wire to it but it wasn't earthed when I bought the bike ( it was mounted onto a plastic bracket! ) so I mounted onto a good earthed bracket and assumed voltage rectifier ? Anyway, I guess it's a rect diode, I'll get the Haynes out this weekend and check it. If it's faulty does it just let the volts rise and therefore blow the fuse? I haven't checked running voltage yet as I thought it was a wiring issue. Thanks for the tip, Dave

There is a way of picking the lock, done this a few times on my XT frames, ones the lock is out there is a key number on the top flat section

that corresponds with the key number you need.

Ah ! Wrong again, thought I knew what I was doing there for a minute. I'm hoping they're easily available.  Will check this aft.

Also,  thanks Tommy, I'll give it a go.

Ok, got a rectifier ordered, thanks
