    need new rubber carb joint. mines all cracked looking

    I need the rubber boot/ tube that goes onto the front side of the carbuerator to the head. opposite side of the carb that the air box is on. anyone know where i can get one? Bikebandit shows the part in their lookup but its not available.I looks to be all cracked from age.
    Actually would this matter a whole lot being thats it is after the carb instead of before it? Since its after carb it wont cause a lean issue right?

    There's quite a few posts of folks using Plasti Dip on those with interim success.

    I had one that was so bad, I cut/cleaned all the rubber residue off and used a piece of a new radiator hose, that I already had.

    I had full intentions of fixing it properly, but it's been on there since 2/22/09, so apparently that's never gonna happen...

    what do you mean you clean all the rubber residue off? Is it metal under all the rubber? If so then it wont matter if the rubber is cracked then right?

    After removing the old rubber, I used a wire wheel and cleaned the area of what I had left to clamp on to. I wanted it to seal correctly.
