Carb to Air Box Rubber Connectors

[Bosular]

I'm new to the forum and glad to talk to owners. I have a ZL1000. The rubber connectors from the carbs to the airbox were not sealing around the carbs and I have removed them. They are not plyable and will be hard to reinstall and them to fit correctly. I've looked for replacements with no luck. Does anyone have suggestions? Thanks.

until you find replacements, use a hair dryer or heat gun to heat them up. it will make flexable until they cool down. making it a little easier to deal with. Welcome to ZL-OA !

Thanks Chris

Thanks for the hairdryer thought. I also heard of a product called 'Rubber Renue' that is supposed to restore softness and original shape.

Kawasaki.com isn't working for me right now, but I believe these are still available . . . maybe Concours part(?).
