I'm after some smoke stoppers for my 12ie, hoping fitting new valve stem seals will solve my problem. They come with most head sets, often they are just binned when a head gasket is replaced, you could bin them at my place if you have a set laying around.

Vaughan
pretty sure I have a set here, left over from a head set.
PM me your address, and I will post them up to you when I find them

Hey Vaughan,
I have the tool to remove the valve springs without pulling the head, and a compressed air fitting with a spark plug thread on it to keep the valves seated. You're more that welcome to borrow then if you need to.

Thanx Bart, that will save manufacturing one, when will it suit to grab that? Just sick of the puff after sitting at the lights, seems sweet other wise.

Thanx Kitch and Bart, 12ie is finally 'Finished' The smoke trail has vanished, no more shame at the lights! as I pull away puffing a cloud of Blue as you move off. Sorry to you if you were the guy in Rangioura on Friday following me on the motor bike, lost you there a couple of times.
New stem seals and smoke is gone.
