hi nige ,what bike are we refering to? my 2004 bullet had a aluminium spacer with 2 plastic type spacers either side + gaskets,in the course of improvement + getting rid of the 10mm thick alloy spacer i junked the lot,fitted smaller in length inlet studs fitted 2 gaskets either side of a tuffnel spacer bought cheap at newark a.j,so in answer so long as youve got the minimum of a tufnel spacer ,see carb section on h cock accessory catalogue +a couple of gaskets that should suffice it works for grunda

Hi paul. just a thought on how it could or if it would alter the running of the engine depending on how thick the spacer was, p.s the gearbox is still ok.crusader 250.
