b. according to https://ahrefs.com/backlink-checker there is a whole bunch of web pages out there refering to cycleorings.com
c. according to https://whois.domaintools.com/ the renewal of the cycleorings.com domain registration is due by 2023-01-04
I'm pretty sure we could solicit the community via a gofundme to keep this valuable ressource living and, why not, give Robert a well deserved retreat gift.
FWIW, count me in.

I would rather trust my bike to a "QUACK" that KNOWS how to fix it rather than a book worm that THINKS HE KNOWS how to fix it.

Three members have ordered so far, and I've got enough O-rings for scores more.
I'm also assembling O-ring kit for Kawasaki KZ bikes. The VM and BS/CV Mikuni's are very similar, but with slight differences. Also, I've got Keihin kits for the popular KZ750 bikes like mine! What's not to like!
Hey Nessism
I have a 1983 KZ1100 LTD that has BS34 Carbs, difference being that the choke is on the carb body instead of the handle bar. Do you have an O-ring Kit for these?My Girls:
1978 Honda Goldwing GL1000 " Valerie" - Project
1982 Suzuki GS1100G "Beauty" My Daily Rider
1983 Kawasaki KZ1100 LTD "Amber" - Project
1978-1982 Yamaha XS1100 Special "Sweetness" - I'm still looking for her.

Just wanted to drop a note of thanks to the community for all the O-ring sales support. As of this posting, there have been 95 shipments of O-rings for the GS community. Interestingly, for the KZ crew, for which I also offer VM and CV kits, there have only been 12 shipments. In fairness to the Kawasaki boys, I don't offer a 550 kit, though. GSR folk here are to be commended for realizing the importance of a proper carb rebuild. Do the (carb rebuild) job right the FIRST TIME, and PROFIT!Ed

Ordered o-rings 7/15, in my mailbox 7/19.
Can't beat that! Another happy camper.
This is a critical service.
Thanks again EdIt's smoke that make electronic components work.
Every time I've let the smoke out by mistake, they never work again.
