My rubber intakes (air bowl to carbs) are a little cracked, what can I do to restore em ?

Thanks

Plasti-Dip in the aerosol can.

Uh....Replace them?

TEMPORARILY, I would coat them with silicone rubber. But really, they can't be all that expensive, replace them.

well since we have no idea what kind of a motorcycle is involved we dont know if it is a part that has been discontinued.so--Plasti-Dip in the aerosol can.

Order new ones and recycle them.

If you an replace them, great. The ones on my bike are $45 a pop and about $100 shipped. I bought a can of liquid electric tape, cleaned them up them coated them down. Worked great, can only tell under close inspection and since it's in the bowels of the bike no one will ever see. $100 expense or $3 convenience, your call

Thanks guys... will probably with plasti-dip or electric tape in aerosol. Paying 100$ for rubber is way too expensive.

I'm not actually sure how much it would be for your bike that $100 was just from my bike. Could be more oculd be less- worth checking out though.

Yep it's detailed around 100$. By the way, where can I find this plastic in spray, went to my electronic store and they did'nt have any in spray.

Canadian Tire would be great ...

I know autozone, advance auto and pepboys carries it. Any electronics store worth it's salt would have liquid electric tape in a brush on form...
