Got really lucky, found one on American e bay on a jeep spares store and he did it for a buy now of 140$ posted it came complete with all fittings and sock. All I've done is fitted it 90 degrees to normal so I didn't need to cut the wiring and used the breathers that were on the bike. I'll get pics in the next couple of days.

:? ......they're not, buy direct from the manufacturer :idea:

www.useforce.com

If it's for an X1, I wouldn't bother with the 'billet' breather kit......it's useless and adds loadsa wonga to the price.
When ordering, speak to Georgia and tell her you want a 'Maz' kit ;)

Bugger.

Bit late now, they took my money ages ago :roll:
Been really happy with the service up untill now, but I'm starting to get pissed now.
They've moved delivery date 3 times.
Now they say mid Jan. If it's not on it's way by then, I'll tell them to put the money back on my card, and try your recomendation.
TM are saying it's a problem with the supplier. I think they're just waiting for a bulk delivery to cut down on shipping cost.
Thanks for the heads up.

Loads on US eBay too that will ship to the UK (or Spain) for far cheaper than TM, but this will be the full XR2 kit rather than the elbow and filter only a la :maz: .

The 'Maz' kit is essentially the carb kit but includes the spacer, metric capheads and the F1 filter, also the breather filter and plastic elbow, hoses, etc. are left out.
