    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...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

I need them. Z1 has them for 850 and 1000GS but no listing for 450. Are they the same diameter and will they fit my air box tight? Or what is another good source?

I want to keep my airbox.
 
Diameter is not the only thing to worry about, there is also length and angle.

You looking for the boots between the airbox and the carbs or the carbs and the engine?

Either way, one good source is Parts Outlaw.
Click HERE for the airbox side boots (note that there is a left-hand boot and a right-hand boot).
Click HERE for the engine side boots (these are both the same).

Thank you. I checked with Parts Outlaw online and there is a filter on my computer that loads the site in a jumbled way so I was going to call them. I purchased the carb hangers already and have soaked the carbs and purchased new clamps.

Yes I realized that they have an angle and a depth I need to be concerned with. I want it air tight and done right. The issue that I am concerned with is just reliablity. I don't mind re-jetting the carbs for the pods but I felt like the airbox would be more reliable in the long run, say like I got stuck in a rain storm, I figure the air box to be water tight and safer.
