What about Hales Tool and Die they stock silver steel capable of being hardened and tempered at home ?

I make taps and dies and drills (D Bits etc) from it

I agree with both GMC and Big K

Lets not forget that 30 years old now is 1987 bikes still legal as red plate but cant be used on a Veri event ?

At 8 years old and such low k I am more inclined to say EGR valve I recently replaced mine and that resolved my occasional dump of blue smoke in the morning

Good luck with it mate

I typically go to Bolton Motorcycles (Kyneton Aus) site and use there part finder for my bike and then use the arrow on the side of the part number to see what other models it fits that way I can use bits of other kits to look for what I want

Honestly if its only a couple of worn items I just get them from Honda now they are pretty good

Good luck with it mate

Ola have a look at fuel filler hoses and ADBLUE diesel hoses around the filler area as these are not reinforced typically and nitrile they are about 3.8 to 4.2 mm wall
(Volvo Truck)

Also GMH hoses and Opel are typically the thinest at 4mm- 4.5mm wall EDPM hoses

Sorry you are not that close but i do work for the last Australian Hose manufacturer 

Good Luck with it mate A truly Stunning Build by the way
