opinions on 'sort of' plug chop pic

I'll wait for a response from Nikau. Bike bandit wanted $64 US for 2 gaskets and 4 jets (OK) but wanted $79US for shipping (not OK)

yeah, i know
that's where www.z1enterprises.com come in
you do need to e-mail them and ask if they can get all that (and they most likely can) and the shipping rate is much more realistic, but it does take a bit longer (like 2-3 wks) if they dont have all the parts in stock and due to the time eaten by all the correspondence

also, from experience, you can talk to b-bandit and ask them to adjust the shipping to whats realistic for those few parts that they can stick in an envelope (website gives you a generic minimum shipping based on a small box -and thats not always the case)

i would first figure out what can be swapped "internally" and what other sizes you need
"steve" has a handy spreadsheet file to do the maths for you, or it's "pen an' paper"

theres a "shim swap thread" going on here where members exchange shims
i have 1 or 2 to swap as well
bike wreckers in nz are likely to have some
as usual, www.z1enterprises is a good source

used shims are fine, no need to buy new

Thanks for that. I will try Z1 and I see Steve's offer re the spreadsheet. This sure is a great forum. It's terrific how people share knowledge/experiences.

Send me an e-mail, I will send the spreadsheet in reply. 8-[

Thanks Steve. Email sent. I appreciate your assistance.

Cheers for that. I'll send them an email and ask them. Looks like I won't be catching up at the ATNR for a couple more weeks.
