New ones are available from David Silver (google it he's in England I think).
But if you find someone making them for less than your first born I'd be interested too. ;D
I think the thing I most like about motorcycling is the speed at which my brain must process information at to avoid the numb skulls who are eating pies, playing the ukulele, applying make-up etc in the comfort of their airconditioned armchairs as they make random attempts to kill me!!!!!!!

I'm using my old ones, one day I'll replace them but for now they are servicable.
Quite often a decent set appears on Ebay but the freight cost from states to here is like twice the cost of the parts and many don't ship overseas.
