Have rebuilt the carbs now, and have them set up and running on the bike (not able to road test yet though) but the left hand side one (in the picture) has a slightly damaged intake, the air box rubber seems to be sealing ok but does any one know if it is liklely to cause me problems later? All comments/advice welcome.

Next up I decided to have a go at the seat base. I'd picked up one of those spike strip kits at the Donnington show as the originals had all but rotted/snapped off. I wire brushed the base then painted it with rust killer/converter then primed it and rivited on the spike strip.
