Hi John and Richard,
The best people for parts in Australia, Bert Flood Imports for Rotax parts, Jim Eades in Ashfield Nsw and Union Jack in Melbourne they all have odd bits. Also have found American Dirt Bike (Keith Fearing) invaluable with help for the parts for the electric start kit. He was the only one who got back to me with a comprehensive list of parts numbers and names...How are your bikes going anyway?
regards Jojo

Hi John and JoJo,

Jo,

I'm wondering how your electric start project is going?

John,

Did you get an instrument panel. Phil at Union Jack thinks they are available. About $60 Aus. He imports direct from Harris in Devon.

Regards-Richard

Hi Richard,
no not yet I will try Union jack.
Funny that, a UK dealer who reckons to know Les Harris says they are not avilable now.
Good result in Bejing!!??
Regards,
John

Jon,

Do you want me to ask Phil?

I've got some side stand springs to pick up from him.

Each gold medal cost Aus taxpayers $17,000,000.

Good result-don't know.

Cheers

Richard

Hi John,

I knew that.
Personally the whole things a bit over rated these days.

Cheers

Hi Richard and Jo Jo,
How are the bikes going?
Had a scare this weekend, I started getting a flat spot so thought I would check the carb out. I was expecting a nightmare getting the airbox off, and found a large hole under the inlet flange. Any way Harris still stock them so that should sort it
