Got the new float valve seats. The extra length should be ok but will need to check further once on with the job. They are 0.25mm bigger...

Will have a look but will take a few days due to work.

I have just fitted a set of gpz500 carbs to mine with the suggested jetting and it's a big improvement on the previous ones. However I...
