    cant help with your rubbers, but you've reminded me I need new sets of retaining pin clips as mine are corroding/dissintegrating...

    Might be worth a call to AP racing , as a lil research shows they have been sending them out to vxr220 owners

    But I'm sure there are generic versions freely available for a couple of quid..
