Messed about with a PHBH 30 mm for ages on my Imola, even had it dynod but it never ran crisp throughout the range. Fitted a Mikuni TMX 27 with the jetting that was recommended and it transformed it, never touched the jetting in about 5,000 miles. Better top end, better pick up and better MPG. I'll never use a Dellorto again.

In the good old days when a dollar was worth 55p then you couldn't beat Jet200 in the States who charged almost the same price in dollars that MB charged in pounds!

Now that the Pound is worth feck-all you might try Justlambretta if he has any although I expect his prices (and everyone elses) are about to skyrocket as everything is imported.

I doubt you can beat our price, even with the $35USD shipping added. You also get more for less with our kits.

If you're just keeping the top-end standard and going with a big bore, the TM24 is a good way to go.
