Ensure an airtight intake system with this Premium Carburettor Mounting Rubber. Specifically designed for the Cast Iron (CI) “Old Model” Bullets, this rubber sleeve (also known as a manifold boot or bellow) provides the critical seal between the carburettor and the engine intake. A worn or cracked rubber leads to “lean running,” erratic idling, and engine overheating—making this a vital part for vintage bike maintenance.
Key Features:
-
Vintage Fitment: Engineered for early Mikcarb (Mikuni) and Amal carburettor setups found on Bullet 350 and 500 models (Pre-UCE).
-
Fuel-Resistant Material: Manufactured from high-density, oil-resistant nitrile rubber that resists degradation from petrol vapours and engine heat.
-
Airtight Seal: Precision-molded to provide a snug “push-fit” over the carburettor venturi and the intake manifold, preventing vacuum leaks.
-
Vibration Dampening: The flexible rubber construction absorbs engine vibrations, preventing the carburettor from frothing the fuel in the float bowl.
-
Flexible Installation: Easily secured with standard hose clamps (jubilee clips) for a reliable, tool-tight seal.
