Hello all,
looking for a Forcewinder or similar for my 97 M2, preferably polished or carbon (bit of a tart me), looking to replace the Buell carbon race item currently fitted.
If no-one has a spare, where would be the best place place to purchase?
many thanks. :)

Have run velocity stacks on an old 2L Alfa trike years back(with tea strainers welded on to keep the biggest of the bugs out) , they looked the nuts, but contributed to the Alfa running very badly. I did briefly consider using a long flared brass version on the M2, but decided it was too much form over function even for me.
Looking for that polished or carbon forcewinder/ type of thing, surely someone has overspent on their Wife/ bike (I meant Buell) this Christmas.

Bump - still looking for a Forcewinder or similar, did look to the US as suggested - nothing doing.

Did look there, maybe i'm just being tight, but $325 + shipping + customs has the potential to turn into a silly price. Seen copies on eBay for ~£200 shipped, guess I was hoping for better than that, hence looking for a 2nd hander or a cheap source.

I may have a Forcewinder elbow, never tried to fit it but the holes have been enlarged to fit an S&S carb.

I had planned to rebuild the holes with weld and make it as good as new. Owes me a staggering £50.

You can get a new filter through Rik.
