They are not.

the '79 intake boots are not interchangeable with the '80 and newer 850's. Much different.

The newer ones are larger I.D. to match the O.D. of the CVs.

Hi,

Comparing part numbers is a good way to tell if one part will fit another bike. There's a procedure for finding and comparing part numbers on my website.


Thank you for your indulgence,
