does anyone have an atomiser for a VHB carburettor type 260U I am looking for a new one if there is one out there.
Please let me know and your price.

Regards
Leonard.

Its for reference only! Why bother to advertise stuff they haven't got.

One option is get an available 260 atomiser, some 0.8mm micro drill bits, a 2.60 reamer and drill out to make a U type atomiser, which I think is 2,2,2,4. I have done similar with some 264 atomisers. I used a dremel with a different ( quick change)chuck which gripped the 0.8mm bit. I got a pack of ten 0.8 bits as you can break them . I only broke one in fact. I made a block from wood with a central drilling and cross drillings to act as a guide.

Er, for reference? How long have these carbs been out of production? All part of the fun of old bikes.

yes all part of the fun I suppose but did manage to find one in the UK last on the shelf, probably in the world.
There is someone in the Netherlands who makes them from scratch must be watchmakers type stuff, can't recall his name and my contact over there is on holiday, but will post if he is interested in offering a service.

at least worth a mail to see what they have on the shelf, they have a lot...

Eurocarb in Pangbourne have supplied me heaps of parts for the flat slide dellorto carbs, including atomizers close to what I wanted, and as John said, they are fairly easy to drill extra holes to get what you want.
