I'm waiting on a response from Amy,but seeing as it's Friday night I'm not expecting to hear from her till Mon.
I'm looking to find a place that sells carb parts,I need a mukuni HSR42 throttle valve seal.I was having trouble starting the bike today,turning strong it started than cut out,would not start again it just kept crankin.I pulled the gas line from the carb,flow was good it just sounded like it wasn't getting gas.I figured,the bike has done some sitting in the last year so maybe the carb is gunked,take it off clean it up good(kinda filthy) put it back on the bike hook up the cables,adjust to where I marked and twist the throttle,barley moved than it would not retract,real stiff,had to twist it to close position,take it off again and take it apart again to inspect,the valve seal broke and a piece was sticking out,pulled the throttle valve,took it apart and sure enough the rubber seal broke in three places.So I need a new valve seal,anyone know where I can find one,I found one on line for $15 bucks plus $10 bucks shipping.I contacted Amy cause if I'm going to pay $25 bucks for a rubber gasket,I'm gonna support one of our vendors.Thanks,
