Huw,
A few years ago, I purchased a pair of HS4's (1-1/2) with linkage, new
breather hoses, fuel lines, new throttle cable, all new gaskets, used inlet
manifold, new carb heat shield, new heater rail, new water hoses and a used
air box w/new filters.  All of the above was in great shape for a total of
186.00 pounds.  I got them from:
T.R. Improvements
Triumph Spares Specialists
19 Carnarvon Road
South Woodford, London
Tel:  081 505 3017

The proprietor is a Ray Gill

Best regards,
Ed Hamilton
