    Rubber fuel sleeves and Tee between Carbs

    I have a 79 GS850GN, I believe I need to replace the fuel Tee between Carb #2 and #3 and the rubber fuel sleeves between Carb (#1 and #2) and (#3 and #4). These are part numbers 718607-001 & 718608-001 on BikeBandit.com. They don't have O'Rings they have ridges in the rubber sleeves themselves. These are discontinued parts any suggestions how I can get or fabricate replacements ????????

    Thanks in advance.

    Easy job if you have a lathe, or know a machinist.

    The photo shows a homemade Tee for my old '79 550

    Failing that, you can purchase Tee's and joining tubes here (not cheap)... http://www.motorcyclecarbs.com/OEM_Fuel_Tees_C1558.cfm

          Tee

          I think I remember seeing those fuel tees on Z-1s website listed for the old Kawasakis....(I think it would be exactly the same thing.)
