Greetings from a new member;
I'm restoring an R42, and in need of the 3 felt seals for the transmission. I'm estimating the dimensions as 44mm x 29mm x 5mm. Is there anyone stateside that would have these so I wouldn't have to wait for shipping from Europe? Also a contact for correct nickel plated hardware for the bike would be useful too.
Thanks,

Vech carries some prewar items, but not the felt seals. (You can find his online store by visiting the club's main page and then looking in the Resources area.) He also has some hardware for sale. I did buy some nickel plated nuts from him, but I think most of his hardware is polished SS.
I have generally had to get stuff from Europe and/or take it to a local plater to get nickel coatings for my R52.
