CB 500 k3 (1977-1978)- new Airbox to Carb inlet/rubber?
« on: June 17, 2018, 01:58:25 PM »
Hello every and one!

So in both sides, my outer Airbox rubber/boots/inlets (whatever they are called) are cracked... It can still drive, although thats because I have glued som tape around it..

I cant find any new on DSS, CMSNL og ebay..   :-\  Are there any one who know a magical dealer or site, where I can find them?

There was a guy in the USA who did make them for the k3 as they are different to the earlier 500/550 due to the horrible PD carbs. I did get some a few years ago, and did keep a note of the website but just tried it and it is no longer there. The name of the website was classicmotorcyclesolution.com I seem to remember it was a small operation so may have stopped trading, perhaps someone on the US sohc forum may know?
Love the 500 and 550 have a 500 called Lazarus under restoration

I have posted both here in the UK AND US site yes...

So much thanks Mickwinf!

Here is his new site (I guess?) http://classicmotorcyclesolutions.000webhostapp.com/

I have sent him an email, so hopefully everything will sort out! But it is probably going to be expensive, to ship 4 rubber boots to Denmark  ;D
