Has anybody got a spare one? Mine vibrated off on one of my
rides.
Thanks

I've got a spare body "somewhere" Nick, but not sure it has all
the bits and pieces. If you get stuck, I'll try to look it out.
Might be this one?

If all else fails, should be easy enough to get one made; it's
just a screw with a taper on the end. You'll have lost a spring
and o-ring too.
Also here, a bit closer to home:

Hi Jake - thanks, but I've checked into those. The trouble is,
the VHB 29 idle screw has a different thread diameter to those
on the later VHB (30 etc.). I tried temporarily stealing one of
my Eldorado and it won't fit. It's not just the wrong size
thread - it won't even get into the hole!
The bottom line is, it has to be one specific to the VHB 29 as
provided to the NF (militaire ?)
If I can't find one, I may experiment with other carbs - but in
the meantime, the rubber plug does the job.

I'll see if I can find the carb. Failing that, can at least
measure up mine.

Hi Nick, You could try Motori di Marino in West Sussex, they
replaced the carb on my bike recently (too worn to tune) they
might still have it.

Hello John,
I'm a bit embarrassed to admit that I was looking at the
wrong part of the carb and in fact, nothing had gone missing.
The left side of the carb (looking at it from the left side of
the bike) has a blank hole which I foolishly thought was where a
missing screw should be. I had overlooked the mixture and idle
screws on the right side..............duh!
So thanks for the concern and interest, but it never was
missing.
Nick
