Manifold clamps
02 Apr 2008 10:19
Hey guys, does anywhere know wher to get those clamps that are on the rubber manifolds? Mine suffer from years of people over-tightening them, and I dont think they're doing a very good job anymore.

Can't you just use the stainless hose clamps, you can get at pretty much any harwarestore?

i can...but i'd rather not, theres not much space in there for fiddling, and the stock style ones are easier to tighten in that situation

Oh, ok, I'll be able to get them on eBay then. Mine are horrible, one or two have stretched out so that when you have the screw all the way tight, its only tightening the manifold a little bit, not enough.

Z1 lists alot of parts on their website but their are a lot more parts that is'nt on the website so sometimes you have to call them and ask and if they don't have them in stock I imagine they can get them.

That's odd, Zedder lists the OEM part number for all the big 4's and the one for your 650 as good for both bikes but Kaw's site doesn't have it as an interchange. I wonder what the difference is between the 650's and 900 &1000's?
Motorcycle parts outlet doesn't list the OEM part number for the big 4's clamp. Tried some carb parts too and no luck. Maybe you'd have to call them like Z1.
