That would be great TED - I'll PM you

Yes UK eBay but FOC is better! Looks like the gaps don’t amount to the difference in length. I should think if the coins could stretch it, using it would too, (which it doesn’t of course). The genuine original ones are pretty robust. The DSS spring looks genuine as stated for anyone needing one.

SPR:
Ted’s spring arrived and to say there is a difference is an understatement !!!

Coin trick used again as puller never arrived and no problems - fits perfectly and stand holds up against exhaust stop rubber

Result! Good news! 👍
Simon ps. Took mine for a spin today having only been out briefly since fitting Mark P’s ignition.
Seems to tickover cleaner when cold and warm, pull more eagerly and cleanly from low revs. Nice.  👍👍

Good to hear :) I put mine on after fiddling with various setup bits so wasn't sure of any perceived improvement  ::)
