    A Special Note about Email accounts!
    DO NOT SIGN UP USING hotmail, outlook, gmx, sbcglobal, att, bellsouth or email.com. They delete our forum signup emails.

    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.

Using the KZ1000 Carb boots

So I have to extend the bolt holes out by a couple of mm to get the same 66.5mm as the Suzuki ones...

I remember reading you had to reverse sides or fit upside down or something but can't find the post now.

Anyone shed any light, save me the time of trial & error :)

I dont know so this is why I'm asking.
What are the benefits of using these intake boots as opposed to using the ones made for the bike?
Also, this for your 78 1000?
 
Hi,

What are the benefits of using these intake boots as opposed to using the ones made for the bike?

The KZ boots are less than half the price of OEM Suzuki boots. Too bad they don't fit more bikes.


Thank you for your indulgence,

BassCliff

That's the thread I wanted! Thanks!

Basscliff is right on the cost. Just saving some pennies was the aim of this mod. I'd got 3 years plus out of the old boots but they were old abd starting to separate. Figured it was time to bite the bullet and fix it right.
