I didn't realise he did cb stuff I thought it was Just pre mot stuff and servicing I actually had his card in my wallet a while back. I took my hornet up there when I had it to get it serviced a couple of years ago. Excellent call on that one mate I had totally forgotten about him! I will check out custom fastners too as I'm in need of some new shocks and don't know if I trust the Chinese replicas they have on eBay.

They are S&B universal ones and they just go straight on to the carb.

Because the frame gets in the way I had to cut a little bit of rubber off on the outer ones but then had the carbs balanced and it seems to work fine.  I had to use different jets but with that and the laser exhaust the mid range power is noticeably better.

Mozza:
Awsome thanks for all the replies even though I have only been on this site for a couple of days it's been a massive help, cheers!!

Look on Jw's website, they do all sorts of aftermarket kit that they don't seem to have in the shop. Dave Silvers for the standard parts.

Mozza:
I think I will go see him next week actually he's literally only a couple of miles down the road from me plus it will give me something to do while the frame and swingarm are at the sandblasters. Is it difficult re jetting the carbs? I'm not very experienced with engines or carbs but more than willing to give it a go.
