Manifold rubbers

[harri183]

Just replaced my manifold carb rubbers and they are about 1mm smaller internal diameter than the originals. Spoke to the supplier and said he has supplied loads without a problem. Will this cause a problem? Don’t want to bolt it all up to then have to replace them. Z1100r they rubbers even have the same part number as the originals. I know on my old exup they used these to restrict the power and you cut them out. Will 1mm make any impact. Cheers

On the exup they had a Quarter moon shape molded into the rubber thats what was cut out .to deretrict ,seems like a long time ago I did that .

Speaking as is yes 1mm will / will u notice it no with today’s traffic
and speed camera’s no one can ride a bike at 10/10 th’s any more plus u don’t thrash old bikes like the old days do yer ! I don’t ride the exup flat out anymore

Love my Exups, went through my crazy days on them spent more time crashing them than riding them. As long as it runs smooth not bothered by a few lost pony’s, that’s what the Tuono Factory is for. Cheers
