A nice item.........you could also have a look at Ebay item 370958671199, which looks similar and is a fair bit cheaper.

I worked for Rank Xerox in Leeds in the early sixties developing the then new technology of fibre optics.
The fibroscopes didn't have a monitor screen then of course, just an eyepiece, and cost a darn sight more than these! I bet the pictures are better these days though, it used to be pretty grainy.
I remember making the first waterproof one for some German engineers who wanted to look round a corner in a heavy water tank.

Limited places on an Enfield to use it on though. Personal medical reasons excepted, any suggestions?

This would be real handy to check for piston/valve interference when I install my NOS high compression pistons. (1955 700cc twin).

Steve, should be plenty of clearance, busted a cam chain on a 54 700 Meteor and the pistons didn't hit the valves

Norm - I've acquired a pair of late meteor minor pistons from our host, who suggests this will give me about 10:1 compression. And budget permitting I will be installing a pair of the constellation cams, thus I'm a little concerned about interference. The bike is being prepared for another record attempt at Bonneville. Steve
