Hi

The rubber inlet rubber manifolds on my FZR400 (3TJ) are really cracked especially around the top lip area and they're weeping fuel, now I've had no luck finding replacements I'm wondering if someone could tell me if any others would fit?

I was thinking the 1WG ones (as they are always available on eBay) but they're slightly taller and also slightly slanted which would make the carbs & airbox sit a bit higher but i don't no if it would push them too high so that the fuel tank won't sit back down into position so that's where you lovely people come in! Very Happy

Thanks!

Hadn't we previously established that the inlets rubbers for the FZR400 were no longer available?

Edit: Ah, yes, here we go...

To be honest, that's a bit of a specialist question for this forum. Are there any FZR400 forums?
