RGS intake rubber stub

[Tree Hugger]

Have found the source of my woes (I think).
Can anyone help with a replacement item?
The other two are ok. I may buy a new set eventually if they are still available it one will get me running.
I’m in Scotland.
Thanks
David

Have emailed Wolfgang, first thing I did .
Also need some 75.5mm pistons for my Jota……. anyone got 2 Omega spares in the cupboard, I’ve got one. Or alternatives?

If there is enough demand I can have them made. Italbrit Classic Motorcycles.
I have some used one's that don't leak now.
But cannot guarantee rubber and Nylon part's that are 40 odd years old .

Thanks Chris. I’ll see if my other enquiries turn up anything and update.

32 or 36 mm inlet stub? I have a decent 32mm stub, located in Germany.

Thanks Gerald, the carbs are 32mm. Is your stub the RGS specific rubber item?

I believe Wolfgang is in Europe to Sept 9th.

Have emailed Wolfgang, but have been able to secure a replacement in the meantime.
Thanks

Most of these rubbers are well past their use-by date by now. Converting to the earlier MkII sytem is imho the better option. Costs about the same as a set of three new rubber stubs but tends to be far more reliable in the long run. Downside is that the airbox bellows are a bit more difficult to squeeze into place.

Is that the ‘metal/rubber’ version Piet?

3D printing can now be paused to insert the metal parts...anyone tried?
As it turns out I modelled the intake years ago. If someone is interested let me know. I should say that today is the day a3D scanner will arrive and I'll put the manifold on the list of things to find to see about scanning it and compare to the model I made. I also have the metal insert.
