Re: proper price for 2pc diaphragm kit

In Europe I asked at Bayermotor, they sell the original BMW spare at 80€ and alternative ones at 55€, Motoren Israel sells kit for 38€. I think I will try the alternatives.
80 euros are too much, and maybe are also old spares.

proper price for 2pc diaphragm kit

Hello everyone,
Searching on the internet I found many diaphragm and gaskets kits for 40mm bing carbs.
But the prices are extremely different from eachother (from 15 to 90€).

So the question is: how much for a good quality kit?

Thanks a lot!

limping pace between 2000 and 3500 rpm

Hi, I think I have a problem, but perhaps it is better to talk about a discomfort during the ride: when the engine is warmed up if I travel at constant speed between 2000 and 3500 rpm I noticed that bike has a limping pace, I'm oriented to think about ignition problem but the sparks are clean, cable...

Re: upperto lower steering yoke misallignment

I will measure the center hole and report the situation, maybe the scratched paint can make everything appear worse than reality.
At this point, with hundreds of euros spent, one more plate does not change much (sigh, sohb!)
