Jon
Have a look at BMW motor bike spares. They use the same carbs.
If you are in the UK I can send you a couple of links to on line spares.

Hi Jon, you can get a gasket set for both carbs for about 40 euros from Avirex
here:
http://www.avirex.fr/catalogue,22/produits/kits-pochettes-consommables/pochettes,60/
Their prices are competitive, especially if you are paying in gbp. You could buy
individual o rings but you need to know the sizes.

Hi Ken,
I have details of the motor / gear head / bearing / brass thread. I'm
in the process of getting the bearing and thread mount turned part made tomorrow.
I have had mine for 14 years and it's proved to be a good piece of kit.
I haven't looked into blades yet as I have a spare set.
Regards
Kevin G-Kev
