I have a bike breakers only 10 miles away so could always pop in if need a new leg,, if they havent got one I can get them to let me know when they get one in,, also thinking maybe there is a market here for these adjusters, as my brother is a turner/cnc so could get him to make some, only trouble being he is about 250 miles away in sunny somerset.
I agree there's a defo market for these Comp adjusters, think how many Gen1 1000's are out there, most have seized Comp adjusters, there's plenty aftermarket adjusters around for sale, but none I can find that'll fit, I did consider a smaller adjuster & sleeve the hole in the Fazer fork down, but the cost of a 1 off would be prohibitive, hence I sorted mine with blood & sweat.
They're nothing too complicated, it's basically just a Brass tapered metering needle screw type affair that's "O-ring" sealed & basically riveted into a housing to slow or speed up oil flow, it would take a bit of fabricating from scratch, easiest option would be to buy another branded adjuster & disassemble & reverse engineer it in a size to fit the Fazer legs.
