Doc G is not going to be restocking Moki parts I don't think. What he has is what he has. I got his last Zenoah intake he had for my G62.

Try Adrian at CHIgnition. If he can get the parts, he may be willing. If you can get the needed parts I'm sure he'd help you out.

Not to sound like a fanboi..but has anyone picked Adrian's (chignition) brain on the Mokis. The guy is like an engine wizard. If it smells bad, makes noise, uses oil and smokes, he loves it.

Get the stock sizes and give Adrian at CH ignition a call. See, if by an off chance, a UMS radial might use the same size. If not, he might be able to ppint you in the right direction.
