To be honest Mark Im not sure what they look like but I did contact David (very helpfull and definitely knows his stuff) and they are the small top hat type and unique to the version 2. Did you replace some on yours?

That certainly looks like a vers 2 shim set up. Small shims that fit over the valve stem?? Not the clearest picture to see the shape of the shim but I'd be reasonably certain they're Vers 2 from that shot.

Scooby125, If you can work out the sizes that you need we can always order them in from Japan. About 7 quid each though, and l'd advise ordering slightly bigger than you need as it will be easier to skim a bit off then put a bit back...............
