Just thought I would drop you a note about NRP Carburettor Diaphragms who
have just repaired my 535 units. I got one fixed last year but it came
un-glued in the week and I also found a small hole in the other one. Sods
Law!! Mind you it did get some stick on the trip to Prague. Anyway, Andy at
NRP is very obliging and repaired both for me on Saturday, only charging me
for the new unit. He is situated actually in Victoria Station in Manchester,
not on the tracks, but pretty close in a lockup as you walk into the station
approach. Very handy for me living in Eccles. He also has a leather repair
and alteration service in the same place (think this is his main business)
which may be of interest to club members as well. You can find him at
www.nrp-carbs.co.uk
He also does Air cut-off valves, Fuel tap kits and Float valve repair kits.

Thanks for the info Bob
Bought 2 new ones from Chorley Yamaha ( £116 )
535 seems to be the same diaphragm as the 400
Fitting them later today
Thanks again for the info, it may come in handy next time
