My original 11/70 K1 is fitted with black rubber carb dust boots, but carb boots 1 & 4 are perished and I sought a supplier of the plain black ones. I was advised the original K1 rubber carb dust boots were the ones with the painted red moulded circle.
However, I've since noticed that James' original 5,000 mile 3/71 K1 is also fitted with plain black dust boots, presumably since new. An original K1 sales brochure shows plain black boots fitted.
Grateful for some definitive advice and a lead to a supplier of the plain black boots as I'd like my K1 to be correct.
Thanks,
Andrew
