Could anyone advise where we could get the correct needles for his 1979 2C?

I've been advised it is Dellorto carb model VHBZ 22 HS and we need Needles (2 of} E43 Original Part Number 2343.43

Himself has apparently 'tried a couple of suppliers but no joy,

TIA

My Strada is exactly the same. No sense at all!

Totally agree and as a bonus it fits both the Strada and the 2C. Result

Yes, that's the one. Jim does only work part time nowadays although the place is open usual times as they are an MOT station etc. Advert in ATG

Jim at Bikecare did the master cylinder on my '77 Strada earlier this year. I can't recall which one he used and can't find the paperwork at the moment either. (The joys of a good tidy up) Give him a call, I'm sure he will remember.

She's looking good there.

Poor thing!

Sorry my response is a little late but I've been to the MGP. Thank you all for your replies, much appreciated.
I'll let you know who I use etc.

My dear old 1977 girl has decided to pack up charging and I've been advised the stator needs a rewind. A search on here suggest West Country Windings or Rex's Speed Shop have been used in the past. Does anyone have any recent experience of either or any other companies they have used. I'm based near...

'Furthest point from my house' Of course.
'Run over at least once' Of course.
Such is life.

I do have a spare side panel, unfortunately not the same style as yours.

I like the look of that. Mind you, I need another bike like I need a hole in the head!

Darn, we don't get back from the Manx until late on 4th

Ooo, pretty, me likey!

Don't encourage me, I already have 6 bikes!

I am tempted though....
