Or Allens Performance, in Nottingham.
I've had jets etc for other bikes from them and have always found their service to be great.
I think they're on minimal staff these days though, so try again later if they don't answer the phone first time.

They also do fuel pump rebuild kits, apparently.

The leak you describe sounds like a failing float valve.
Try tapping the float bowl sharply (with a bit of wood etc) as this can sometimes jar the valve into sealing.
If so, you've located the problem and who knows, you may get away with just replacing the float valve and avoid the need for a full carb overhaul.
