    Gs1000g airbox boots

    Ive been on ebay and been googling places looking for new airbox boots for a buddies 80 1000G and cant find them

    Anyone know what other models and years will interchange with the 1000G?

    I was thinking maybe the 850G would be the dame boots?? Just unsure about it but the 850G airbox looks the same.

      Have you looked at cruzinimages.net? I bought some from them previously.

      Now that I'm thinking about it, I remember having to order boots for the 750 model but they did fit my 1000E.
      But it shows the 850 airbox looking a lot like the airbox of the 1000. The part # are different by 1 digit. Sorry I can't be more helpful.

        Cruzin is one of my stored go to places and didnt see any SPECIFICALLY for a G model. I saw the one digt difference in the 850G ones too. I even yried the cross referrencing trick on alphasports with the1000 part numbers and got nothing.

          The 1100G should be the right size I would think.... I think I have a just about serviceable set that you could use for a test fit &/or whilst you're waiting if you want to pay for the shipping... Let me know & I'll hunt through some boxes.

              1982. I think all years would be the same, it would at least tell you if you could get away with it or cut them or something... I may have a set of 1000G ones somewhere... again in just about serviceable condition if I do.... I can send you whatever I find if you like. PM me your address again.

                  Be sure to keep us updated especially if the ones from the 1100G fit ok. One would think the boots from airbox to carbs would all be the same unless the carbs are different sizes BS34?

                      850G and 1000G boots definitely do not interchange. BS32 vs BS34. If they're shriveled up and hard, the 1000G boots can be made to work on the 850G in a pinch. I did the BC rally that way one year. (Both 1980 bikes.) I don't know what happened, but both bikes had relatively new boots, and that spring they were all dried out and shrunk. It hasn't happened since. Just that one spring. Freaky.

                      The 1000G boots are marked L and R because the two ends of each boot are not concentric. They're offset for some reason, about 1.5mm, from memory.
