Those carb to manifold rubbers don't look right Mick.
I did some on Grommitdogs bike earlier this year. When the engine was revved you could see them pulsing and the carbs moving back and too as they did so. The weight of the carbs also bend them down. Genuine ones don't look like that, they are sort of plastic looking and will support the carbs with no problem. Are they DS replacements?
If you need some I have loads spare somewhere.
If that's the clutch cable going over the throttle cables that's routed wrong and will cause problems.

Hi Ken, I think the rubbers are original ones as I didn't use DS ones this time. The clutch cable is the wrong one supplied as far too long so probably US style high handle bars. The cable I got from silvers was chap and caused sticking clutch so not keen on getting another. Not sure where to source another.
mickwinf:
came to fit the repro top brake hose and it turns out to be the long version for US style bars and Silvers dont do the shorter one. any suggestions for a supplier, i would prefer the rubber original type.
taysidedragon:
Try Wemoto or Burtons Bike Bits. HEL do a black braided hose that looks like a period one.
