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.

On the https://redeye.ecrater.com/ link off of the https://sites.google.com/site/valkparts/Home link, he has a note saying Redeye is closed so he can go to a wedding in Arizona. Will reopen June 23. Three days from now.

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
