Does anyone know of a DellOrto parts supplier in the UK? Many years back I had parts from.... ?? Developments in Reading but they do not seem to be around now.

I need needles, jets, O rings and gaskets for my gummed up and damaged PHF 32, '81 units.

Thanks
 
You could start with Slaters.
Or Moto Mecca.
I think there is a Dellorto concessionaire in the UK but apparently he's not cheap.
Stein-Dinse in Germany seems cheap and reliable.
 
Dellorto UK are the obvious source, but they are horrifically expensive:

I am using three suppliers:

Wasp Performance for jets, as I wanted 3 sets and they charge about 1/3rd of the price. Order the PHBH jets - they are the same as PHF:

If he doesn't show stock in his online shop, give him a ring and he will increase the numbers shown.

Grant put me on to Stein Dinse for the rest, good selection and helpful people:

However, Stein Dinse are out of stock of the gasket sets and are quoting 4-5 weeks delay. If you are in a hurry, this guy on ebay sells them at a good price:

I bought 6 sets and they cost me ?60 including shipping to the UK.

Grant, Simon and Poffer. Thanks for the quick reply, EuroCarb are based in Reading so I guess they took on where Developments left off, I used to get all my Dell Orto parts from them when I had my production race Le Mans and H-D RR all those years back.

Poffer- thanks for the link to the Ebay guy, I will take a look at S-D in Germany. Cheers Guys. Here's to another Laverda on the road.
 
Well, as it happens, the postman just knocked on my door and I can confirm two of the suppliers as really fast.

The gaskets arrived signed for express delivery and took 3 days from order to arrival.  Proper Dellorto ones too.

The jets took 2 days to arrive.

Still waiting on Stein Dinse, but that's not a reflection on them, as they were waiting for the gaskets before shipping a full order. I expect they will be here next week, now I have deleted the gaskets.

I will put the information under Dellorto in recommended suppliers.

p.s. not only are parts from Dellorto UK expensive, but they charge double to ship UK to UK than others charge to ship Germany to UK  ::). Wasp Performance charged only ?1.49  ;)
 
Grant, my profile picture of the Jota has gone and I do not know how to get it back. I can not seem to add my motorcycle profile like others so I'm stuck where I am.
This forum is a useful resource, it is some 34 years since I had my Jarama from the then Motorcycle City bike supermarket in 1979 and just realise that there is not a great deal of info on Laverdas. I have a RR250 race bike (HD) and there is nothing anywhere.

Cheers guys.
 
You can add pics less than (I think) 200kb using the additional options button when you are posting a reply, or copy/paste the link directly from a photo hosting site like Image Shack, Flickr etc.
If I can do it then it HAS to be easy.

Yeh, just to confirm that: Contact Developments morphed into Eurocarb a few years back.  But as others have said, it seemed to lose some of its soul in the process ...
