hi guys im new to the forum and was just wondering if anyone new where to get hold of a set of the inlet restrictors for for a 3en2? i have just purchased the bike off the dreaded ebay as a project also can you buy the airbox rubbers anywhere as it doesnt seat on the carbs, i took the dummy tank off to sort it all out for spraying and found this out.i have never seen so many bodges on 1 bike. :o

Welcome to the forum

You can get the rubbers from Fowlers of Bristol - you have to supply them with the frame number before they'll serve you, it's on the V5.
You might aso want to check if the fuel tap and lever aren't broken - if they are it's best to get them new too and also the little screw that holds the lever on. You have to remove the lever before taking the tank off, which how they break.
Check the EXUP is open / closing - take off the chrome cover, turn the ignition on and see if it moves. Check the cables haven't frayed low down.

ah brilliant thanks for the reply will just have to wait for the log book coming through and hey have you seen the bike ;) im guessing the tap is a common thing when i took the tank off i thought it looked like there should be a tap in the hole.will check the valve when you switch it on a little servo moves the cables under the seat but its seen many bodges,the brakes didnt work at all i later found it had only been blead up on 1 side on the front :? and someone has sprayed it red and used pin stripe and lecy tape to make their own stickers,then stuck some boy racer shop angel eyes and green leds in the fairing im sure there is a decent little bike under there somewhere,my lad isnt 17 for just over a year so plenty of time.

That sounds tasteful :o
The frame number is also .... on the frame ;) by the headstock
Before you ask all the engines have "1WG" on them.
