Anybody got a carb heating kit lying around that they'd like to sell?

Yep, Jim may well have one. If not try ebay. I'm not too sure what the kit contains but I'm sure it's just an extra oil line. If you need help try ducatisportingclub.com as someone on there will know.

Float bowls with oilways, extra oil line, and a tap. Apparently. I think the tricky thing will be working out which model's kit is most appropriate, if there's any difference between the models.
Hint: the *Ducati* is fuel-injected. I could always swap the engines, but I suspect it might be noticed...
This is for the Elefant 900, right? IIRC, it's the 2V motor which uses the Mikuni carbs, which were common on the 2V across all Ducatis; both Monster and SuperSport. So really any one of them will do. Looks like there are still some new bits around: http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=160188373993 I've put the parts catalog for the 900SS on the GMail drive along with the workshop manual for you - the parts list certainly has the oil feeds as I checked.
Yeah, sorry, it's 35Mb and GMail don't like files that big. I'll split it into some .rar chunks and upload it tomorrow.
