Karl,

I think there are some options. I have bought the gaskets from Harper's
in the past. Tom Bowes who used to be on the list made some nice ones,
too. I think Road & Race Engineering in Australia has 'em too. I'm not
sure, but my favorite vendors MG Cycle and Moto Guzzi Classics may be
able to provide gaskets too. I know I bought a pretty nice set of
replacement petcocks (no adapters) from MG Cycle a little while ago too.

 Hi Scott,
Way more freezing crud than I can stand, wish it would all go
away! More
 coming though. :-(

The item no. of the spots I was planning to use is AGG064689P -
$22 ea.,
 then you'll need to get the sealed beam unit for another $10.
Probably
 can get the sealed beam at a NAPA or similar cheaper. Andy Hill
(?) was
 using some lights from the tractor supply store on "Kermit" if I
remember correctly. If you want black housings, they would work.

You can find Lucas replicas cheap - usually around $8 ea. Most
will have
 long (85mm?) stems which may or may not work for you. MG Cycle has
them
 (I think) along with the later Cal II style CEV signals in black
or
 chrome. Aprilias show up on eBay occasionally, usually for mucho $
if
 nice. If you're not worried about total originality, Dennis Kirk
has
 reproduction signals for many Japanese bikes that would work
also.
 
You're welcome to come up anytime, drop me an email when you
return.
 Cheers,

Charlie
