Carb manifolds...

[Tiger]

 :) I have been asked, on several occasions, about the availability of the rubber carb manifolds...the ones that go between the carbs and the cylinder heads...that eventually, over time, crack up to varying degrees, which can lead to air leaks :o
           
In most cases, these can be "fixed" by a simple good clean and a couple of coats of liquid electrical tape. However, you do need to replace them at some point... ::)

They are available (new after market) at:

Zdeno Cycle, contact Jack on the front desk. They are around $55.00 (Canadian) a pair  8)

Still cheaper than Fleabay.

Oh and you are also supporting a local wrecker/supplier which is a good thing these days.  Not too many motorcycle wreckers in Toronto.  So having one only 5 minutes away Raj is a GOOD thing.

:) Oooo.K...but we do have to pay tax on new products...and sixty-odd dollars to replace twentyeight year old parts isn't that bad a deal... ::) Less than $2.50 a year... ::) ::)
Tell me when you find a local suppler, selling new, that has a lot better pricing...until then, I guess you will be keeping the old ones that leak on your Vision mate...LOL

Inflation is a bitch.They probably only cost $2.00 way back then.But to last this long is well worth it.I happened to stumble upon a pair which will be put to good use.

If the statement is correct in the OP that is 'per pair', not too bad, especially compared to OEM parts which are next to nonexistent and significantly more expensive.

There is a local granger here in Phoenix and they sell a polyurethane rubber kit where you you make a mold and add X of A and Y of B then pour it in your mold and 24 hours later you have a rubber part. I have toyed with the idea of doing that for a while but never got the time and money at the same time and now that the silver bike is running on the other set of boots my friend found I didn't really need to fool with it. But should the need ever arise for new boots that it what I will do.

Then that is not bad at all since I paid $45.00 (US) each for mine a few years ago.
