From eBay,just search Enfield carb,it came from Mickey Spares ,the jetting is as came with the carb. All in including postage just under £20(and that's from India).To be honest can't notice much difference between the22mm and the bigger 24mm,I had to make up a spacer/manifold(with a taper). Cheers the noo Brian

Out on the bike today and my C15 was struggling with the mud clogging the front sprocket. Fortunately I don't ride in mud too much but on a few occasions that I do the issue with the front sprocket clogging causes the bike to snatch(chain jumping sprocket??),is there a way off keeping mud out the sprocket.I have an extension on the bottom of the mudguard going past the swingarm pivot.Any ideas?? cheers the noo Brian

Out on the bike today at my first trial of the year at Cochno,Clydebank the bike ran well with the Pacco carb,pulled cleanly from idle(no cough like the Amal sometimes has).Braw cheers the noo Brian

I ran a K and N style on my C15, bought from China on eBay, £4 including postage. Worked well and easy to clean/oil. Cheers the noo Brian

Just finished putting an Enfield(Pacco-Mikuni copy) carb. on my C15.Its 24mm so made a tapered mount/spacer for it.Switched the petrol on pulled up the choke and it started first kick after a few seconds let the choke off and turned both air screw and idle screw and gave it a go round the garden,pulls cleanly from idle.Still to try it at a trial next weekend.The carb(new)cost less than £20 incl. postage.The last couple of years I have been running an Amal(the one with all the improvements) and wanted to keep it good .Will let you know how it goes. cheers the noo Brian

Maggar what I fitted to my C15 is an hourmeter from eBay it cost about a fiver ,has a wire you wrap around the ht lead. Its ideal for monitoring oil changes and engine running time.just type in hourmeter and you'll find it,it's about the size of a matchbox Cheers the noo Brian

All the best Mikey ,roll on 2015 Cheers the noo Brian
