Need a little help from loop framers. Where can I get a replacement for the
rubber bumper on my Eldo's side stand? This is the bumper that keeps the
retracted side stand from having metal to metal contact with the frame. Any
suggestions for a replacement are appreciated.

Also, I cleaned the front brake (symptom: major squealing) and adjusted per
the suggestions on this list a couple of weeks ago. It feel great on the work
stand and I am anticipating much better road performance.

.... and I have been experiencing erratic idling for a while. It runs OK
under load, but backfires on deceleration and the deceleration seems to be
not as strong. Fixing this is the next project. Looking at it on the work
stand, I see major leaking from the left (delorto) carb. Not sure what I'll
find, but it comes apart this weekend. Any suggestions as to what I should
look with these symptoms?
