These people http://www.coxandturner.co.uk/piston-rings made a set for the pistons in my M31CSR and they seem fine.

I walked past the old shop in Shrewsbury a couple of weeks ago. Still there and looks the same, but closed up.
By the way, just further down the road near the river, there's an old advert painted on the side of a building for a motorcycle shop and it says Velocette Dealers.

You could try Sheffield British Motorcycles (part of the Bantam John Empire).
They had the Hepolite stock from Gaggs - found me some M18 rings a couple of years back.

im surprised that cox and turner cant help
Hasting rings in the US do loads of special rings , you need to be desperate and exhausted everywhere else but send then a email

if you have old rings to measure the width and depth of the rings and the bore size

A update on my search for rings, i had emailed cox +turner but had no reply ( must have been my fault } as i have now rang them and they are most helpful, hope to make me a set tomorrow. Thanks again for all your input. I still can't believe a set of std rings for a 16ms are so rare.
