    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...

    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.

Air Filter Box Boots

Hi everyone. I'm doing my first restoration project on a donated 1982 GS650L. I finally got things running after 3 attempts at cleaning the carbs and replacing the o-rings on the intake boots.

I was cleaning the air filter box to put it back on, but noticed that the rubber boots look absolutely awful. I'm concerned that particles will flake off and directly go into the carbs / engine since this is past the air filter. Is this normal? Can I change these rubber boots or do I need a whole new filter box?

Welcome to GSR.

In your picture you can see the bronze looking spring things. Need to find a way to grab those and get them out. Maybe grab the egde with small plyers.

Also check the clamps to see if should order a set of those too.
 
Thanks for the welcome everyone.

cowboyup- that website is great. Much appreciated.

Redman - I got everything disassembled and definitely need to order the tubes. The clamps and rings still seem to be functional condition.

While I am waiting for the parts to arrive, is there anything I should check that could cause this? It looks like there was a fire in the box.
