79sr650 carb holder

anyone know the part number for the carb holder on a 79 sr650? or how i can find it, without pulling the part?

Are you looking for the intake boots/airbox hoses (between carbs and airbox) or the manifolds (between carbs and cylinder head)?
Z1 has the intake boots/airbox hoses and the manifolds for a lot less than the dealers charge.

More problems again Boom?

nothing serious just figured i would go ahead and replace those, idle still a bit too high for my taste. i was looking for the carb to head holders. anyone need a stock airfilter?

If the old carb holders don't have cracks or dont feel hard I wouldn't worry about changing them. I took mine off then put some rtv sealer between the contact area and put the holders back on. Plus tightened the clamps on the carb, but replaced the air intake hoses, those deteriorate faster than the carb holders

the contact areas? where the carb hooks to it, or the block?

Between the head and carb holder. Hey check out that post in carburetor. 440 manifolds, I had the same prob with my SR carb holders when taking them off. I used a no.3 screw driver tip with a socket wrench and alot of strength, but I am not posting on that, the big fish already got that one. Big tip make sure your screwdriver is direct on the screw, you dont want to strip the face of the screw

will do, thanks man. did you have a good easter?

Not really, it snowed this morning then the sun came out later and it all melted off real fast so I went riding on the 650. Someone left a note on my 650 asking if I wanted to sell it and that sorta freakes me out seeing that my bicycle got stolen from in my locked building, so I took the not put it under the 1000 and left the 1 on prime and went for a ride. The 1000 pissed fuel all over the note. I will be riding the 650 all week now. I would seel my 650 for 2000, its worth it now seeing I fixed it more than I rode it.

yeah, i have always hated that. i ended up riding around my neighborhood with my oldest son, we got his mini-chopper up and running. you know, a 50cc dirtbike motor makes alot of noise in a residential area, and these people who live around me hate it.

This place also has the carb holders. You can buy the holder individually from here if need be.

I think there are 2 of each. My 79 KZ650B3 has 2 holders with vacuum ports on the bottom(plugged) and 2 holder with ports on the top going to the vacuum switch.
I think I am going to try the RTV because my holders look ok without cracks. There is a leak right at the flange though. Wish me luck.
