...... I'm in the same boat, had goods on order for months with no updates as to when or if I might ever get them, though I haven't paid upfront.
Corrado,
Do you know if they are still going? And if so are they likely to remake these
Rubbers
Cheers for your help

Not 100% but if it's like the LTH and MB offerings, it'll have a flanged rubber.....maybe one of those could be made to fit??

Can't a silicon one be warmed up, put on and tightened down, with the same effect?

I've only done it on a bike (that wasn't going to vibrate the carb off). It should work on a scooter, unless your carb is as heavy as an Amal.

I bought some 'perfect fit' legshields that didn't fit and paid way over twice the price shown in their website. A recent order was way over 6 weeks in arriving and was terrible quality. Their after sales service is terrible too. I'd never use them again.

Could they be on some sort of Vietnamese holiday? They seem to shut down for weeks at a time sometimes.

hi, ive just had a quick look at one of these readvalves and to my untrained eye it looks like a yamaha 350ypvs readvalve so you may be able to use a carb rubber from one of these, what size carb have you got, yamaha banshee uses the same as well, they are bigger than the standard 350lc, ive got a pair fitted to my scooter, the beast.
