My 1000g needs carb boots, where can i get them new? Also arnt the 1150e 36mm? I have a set of bst36ss id like to use after the rebuild. Will the 1150 boots fit the 2v head. (Obviously porting will be needed)

Hit the normal stores like Parts Outlaw, your local dealer, Z1 maybe, etc. etc. Although extremely expensive for their parts, www.Alpha-sports.com has an excellent fiche.Cowboy Up or Quit. - Run Free Lou and Rest in Peace

I looked today for them this morning for a 1100G. $37 each at Bike Bandit. about a 50% price hike from the last time I bought them, maybe 7 0r 8 years ago. on an 850, they are usually a lot more, because on an 850, the balance test port is on the boot, not on the head.sigpic Too old, too many bikes, too many cars, too many things

What size are they? Id like to use my 36mm carbsComment

They are stock. You should verify the bolt hole size and center to center distance before you go that way.
I just checked because my brother was talking about the GS1100G I gave him in '09.sigpic Too old, too many bikes, too many cars, too many things

Yes, the 1150 carbs are 36mm. The 1150 carb boots are not the bolt on style though.sigpic

I see that now. Im wondering if the new boots will stretch over the bigger carbs. My 1000g runs the same boots as the 11g. But theyre old and hard so definitely no stretching.Comment
