    After 2 years with reworked carb to engine boots they are finally pretty much shot. I've seen you can no longer purchase these new and they can be hard to find in decent condition used for my '81 650. I've been comparing other bikes to mine and found a set for an '85 xj700 that looked exactly alike, the carbs and engine resemble each other. Does anybody know if carb boots work on more than one bike?

    NO, they won't! (actually, they will, but then the airbox boots won't fit).

    I do have the correct, original, brand new intake manifolds available for your bike, drop me a note if interested.
