re vokes

hello, does someone knows from were to purchase the inner filter element used in the vokes bsa wm20 ?

Thanks before hand.

Re: re vokes

Hi Noel...assuming you are talking of a tank mounted Vokes I don't think these are available. The originals filter elements were 10 felt tubes, clipped to the manifold at the back end and clamped at the front.
I went and bought some felt and sowed up the tubes for mine....Ian

Re: re vokes

These Vokes filters are noisy things and riding around with it without any of these tube fitted doesn't help I can tell you that. During our trip to the South of France years ago I removed the tube between the filter and the carburettor as I just couldn't stand the noise any more after a while. Fitting these tubes would surely have reduce that noise to a better level.

Re: re vokes

i stuck the thickest felt i could find onto the inside of the filter grills/holes i love the sound the filter makes

Re: re vokes

Many thanks for your idea Ian. I will buy some white felt and have them stiched up as tubes.

Kind regards
Noel

Re: re vokes

I found having some felts fitted quietened things down a bit...but not much. However, I like the sound the filter makes, even on a long run. I guess I must be tougher than Henk ..or my hearing is worse...Eh?...Ian
