I'm looking for a rubber airbox to carby boot for a project. It needs to be about 85mm long and 70mm diameter at one end and 55mm at the other end. Anyone got anything close to that?

John, did you end up finding a close match for your airbox to carb boot ? I have mentioned in the tech talk section a while back , that the junction rubber on a toilet between the delivery pipe & the bowl might work in some situations like this . I can think of no better source for a part for a Harley, than something off a toilet ;D. The toilet delivery pipe measures around 52mm( I think it would easily stretch to 55mm) & the porcelain bowl inlet measures around 80mm ( although I think the rubber is stretched about 10mm to go over it). The junction rubber is only about 60mm long though , making it 25mm too short . You could easily extend either end , by using a small piece of stainless exhaust tube as a coupling & 25mm of radiator hose (just means that you would have 4 hose clamps in there instead of 2) .

Never thought of that one Mark, i don't pay that much attention in the dunny. I was thinking of maybe a fork boot or cv joint rubber boot. Watch out for the harley spraying you with shit at CD6. :D
