Title: PLEASE HELP - H7 360 plastics.
Post by: DT_Mania on September 28, 2010, 05:06:15 am
I am in desperate need of 1984 H7 360 plastics. I have tried South West Montesa - they say that the H7 was not imported to the States and they can't help. Tried DC Plastics - same story. Also tried Solomontesa - they just ignore me flat. Even got my brother to also mail them but same story. No reply. Might be a language issue.

Any and all help would be appreciated!

Cheerio,

The only place I got mine from was Solomontesa. He does do English. Just keep trying. His H7 plastics are actually good........

Make an order with Solomontesa and then email them to ask about payment/postage. They have always responded then. I have also experienced a lack of response from them except when dealing with an order.

What we need is someone in Spain who can act as a go-between as there are heaps of sites that produce/sell items we want but do not seem interested to deal with people outside Spain. I have found a guy that makes new fuel tanks for VB Montesa among other stuff and many Bullies bits. They will not respond to emails even when I placed an order and requested postage costs etc.

Any Monty people on this site in SPAIN?

I reckon' with you being so close to retiring age Greg, you should spend the autumn days of your life over there being our go-between man. Think of it as throwing yourself on the grenade for your mates and the VMX community.  ;)

(By the way. My twin crank seal experiment failed horribly. :( Best you get onto plan B....)

Still a few (Bloody 7 actually) years to go just yet Ross. Gotta top that Super up 8)

OK plan B it is. I was thinking about that twin seal jobbie. There probably needs to be a small space between the seals to allow the outer lip on each seal to work. Anyway I am going to try the 30 x 45 x 8 Honda CR crankshaft seals using a machined press in sleeve in the carrier.



Does anyone know of a source for 30 x 50 x 7/10 two stroke crankshaft seals?
