Hi Keith,

If memory serves, it's either an 11mm or 12mm head on it. I think my
standard 1/4" drive craftsman sockets reach it just fine. Also, and I'll
need confirmation from the wiser souls on the list for this one, I
believe that originally there may have been a 'pipe' spacer under the
head so that the head extended below the perch. From top to bottom, you
would have had:

choke
perch
pipe spacer
bolt

Can anyone else confirm this?

Anbody got a clean or re-chromed right side choke lever? Mine is pretty

ratty looking, would like to clean it up. Also, looking at how it is
mounted, it appears I would need a thin walled socket to get it out,
anybody know what size socket that nut is holding it on the bar perch?
