Thanks to all...!

The air filter is a Conti put on an original air hose.


Have you ran the bike successfully with the arrangement you have? Whenever I've tried such an arrangement utilising even original 'stiff' Innocenti 22mm carburettor size bellows, the induction suffers to make the bike unrideable, even without a filter fitted on the end. By contrast, the 'Breathe Sweet' elbows look much beefier. Not that I've got one of those! Perhaps state of tune has something to do with it.

Mine runs well.

Good for you that your's runs well, even if I find it amazing that mine must draw bigger 'lungfulls' than yours. If mine did run well without spraying unburnt fuel everywhere, I'd be encouraged to use it more, so that's why I ask. Catch 22?

Nonetheless, I have managed to make a car elbow fit that does allow the engine to function & now I need to test further as I have further modified my 'hybrid' VHB 30 (fitted with PHBH atomiser & needle arrangement) only last night. I'm about to try the slide modified even more to allow the needle to 'engage' with the atomiser as per PHBH. Hopefully, it will turn out to be the obvious solution.

Thank you for the feedback.

It was from Jockey Boxenstop.
I've bought it 3 years ago but the hub was twisted.
I had big problems when I wanted to insert the wheel spindle.
The scooter was dangerous when you ride it : it was going from right to left very quickly.
It was too bad, I had to change it...

I've bought the rear rack on ebay.uk and the oil carrier comes from Vincent Mercier.
