    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

Hey everyone.

Got the bike running, idles rough and all over the place. Yay carb boot leak!

Just wondering if anyone knows a place to get some carb boots for this bike without paying $80 for essentially four bent pieces of hose.

Tried looking around for an equivalent, but can't seem to find much. Closest i found was a cb900 carb boot.


(This bike doesn't have the o-ring style carb boot, it's just a rubber hose)

Thanks!
 
Thanks a lot! Looks like an awesome site to keep bookmarked.

Opinion on Cruzinimage's stuff is mostly favourable - the Honda 750 guys love him, as he's kept their bikes running with pistons and rings for quite a while now. I bought a set of standard GS850 rings from him last year and on close inspection they seem to be fine - but won't know until I run them.
I haven't heard anything bad about his rubberware, but it's probably going to be better than the miscellaneous garbage that's sold on ebay from various sellers who flog it along with assorted trinketry that's got nothing to do with bikes; I've heard some bad things about carb boots from those sources.
