Has Anyone Tried Dave Silver Float Valves?
Lynx:
The coutry seems to be full of people charging VAT on things they shouldn't be >:(.

As a VAT registered business, DSS is legally required to act as an unpaid tax collector for the government (and if he gets it wrong or forgets, he gets fined...)
He is providing VATable supplies so has to charge VAT (even on the shipping)
If he was selling fresh food or stamps or train tickets (etc), he wouldn't be charging the extra 20%

" Clem...I bought both carb o'haul kits from DSS (this year) - and they are Keyster, and so a little confused at your "DSS OR Keyster" comments? "
DSS list a float valve assy but I don't know if these are Keyster made or not.
The overhail kits are Keyster.
Trying to find out if the valve is from another source?.... might ring DSS to find out.

My bike was bought as a basket case (pic included just for interest). I have no idea if the float valves fitted are genuine or pattern but they just weep a bit all the time. I have a spare set of carbs I can try, but again no idea of the history. It seems a set of genuine parts will be £80 but I don't really want yo spend that much. I've already spent £1000 more than anticipated (usual story I guess) :o.
