Carb boots/ holders
31 Oct 2020 14:39
I have been looking for new 29mm carburetor boots and not impressed with what I'm finding.
Either they are China junk or expensive with no name or no made in Japan writing on them.
Where can I find a quality or oem set of 4 29mm carb boots?

I have no experience with 29's but I think the OD is the same as other Mikuni carbs, so any boots will work. Have you checked out PMC Japan?
I have several restored bikes along with a 2006 Goldwing with a sidecar. My wife has a 2019 Suzuki DR 650 for on and off road.

If you are asking about the carb holders on a KZ1000 J engine with 29 smoothbore carbs, the stock parts are what you want.

They don't have the vaccum ports.
Funny that part # is the same for the $15.00 China ones as the $100.00 each OEM.
How do you know what you are getting?

Zpower have an excellent reputation and sponsor the UK Z1OC. If you want and pay for oem thats what you'll get. The part no is for fitment purpose's.
The ones without vacuum ports are for cv carbs the ones with are for vm carbs.
What carbs do you have?, vm 29's right?

I ordered them from z1 parts.
They were exactly like the originals.
I usually don't have luck like that.
Thanks
