Red Eye

Anyone know the status of Red Eye?
As I dig into my new-to-me '99 interstate I see that it appears to have most or all of the symptoms folks describe here. I'd really like a set of new Viton o-rings for the intakes as 4 of 6 are currently leaking "mung". When I try the web site, it says "On Hold". I'd also like the complete shiny despot kit as I think ti only makes sense to with the age of these bikes to eliminate as many vacuum leak points as possible. The site shows nothing available under despot.
Can I order these parts? Is stuff just backordered? Is there an alternate source?

I’ve heard good things about red eye kits, but if you need O rings they are a #123 (size) in Viton. You might find them in a local hydraulic hose store.

Thanks... good catch on the the "closed to attend a wedding". I missed that somewhere in all my attempts. I'll revisit the site later this week & see if I can order the parts I need after the 6/23/21 reopen date.

You can buy the Orings directly from Viton. Their size for our intakes is 123
