Narrow carb intake clamps,where to get?

[Guest]

Would like to replace my oem carb intake clamps, all 8 have been off so many times,
Their getting in bad shape. Don't want to pay 8$ each.
An aftermarket source ?
Or a universal Clamp?
Don't want a gear Clamp!
Help.
Thanks

Eight bucks apiece??? Please let us know who is raping you so we can avoid them.

The ones on the airbox side are part# 09402-11458 and are $3.41 each. You will need four of these.

The ones on the engine side are part# 09402-50306 and are $3.18 each. You will need eight of these.

These prices are from Parts Outlaw, one of our favorite OEM sources.

Have never seen narrow clamps at a hardware store, there is really no substitute for the real thing.

Sure looks like 8 to me. One at each end of the rubber tube, there are four tubes.

Might help if OP mentioned what bike he's working on. 750 w/1100 engine? What year, what carbs, etc.

Very true, but in this case, does it really matter? They both need eight clamps.

I looked for a while and could not find narrow clamps. I broke down and bought OEM ones.

Yes, it matters. Size always matters. Not to mention only the 2nd gen 750 and 1100E/1150 use 8 clamps.

GS750 and GS1100 16 valve use the same size clamps....same part number

Part# 09402-50306 - CLAMP - 1982 GS750E

Part# 09402-52306 - AIR INLET HOSE - 1982 GS1100E,ES

Not sure why the description is different for the 1100, but the number shown is for the clamp, not the "pipe" as suzuki denotes the hose.

You are correct, they both require 8 clamps but different part numbers. Dar
