Cb750 f1 rear cowl rubbers

(1/3) > >>

Coppertop1234:
Presently trying to source 2 rear cowl rubbers
It seems the were discontinued several years ago and I have a cowl with no rubbers

Tried everywhere I can think at moment

Ken4004:
What do they look like ? Is it a type of grommet ?

Coppertop1234:
Thinking of trying to make my own at moment Ken
Thought of making a mold using silicone as filler with a bolt in centre to strengthen and allow fixing
Or buy a cowl with them on hoping they haven't perished

Here's a pic of what they are

I wonder if it’s worth trying to make one out of a solid piece of Rubber and cut it with a sharp knife.

I did have an idea of making rubber parts using rubber sheet and  building it up in layers and using vulcanised rubber adhesive to bond the sheets together.
As you’re not actually going to see them it doesn’t  really matter what they look like.

I did think about making the fuel tank rubber mounting using this method, what gave me the idea is was a repair I did on a pair of diving fins I repaired using an inner tube to repair the split which didn’t look great but it make a very good repair.
I used Black  witch adhesive to bond it together which is used to repair wet suits and is a really strong bond.

Coppertop1234:
No problem in trying these ideas out Ken .it keeps it interesting and satisfying if you can adapt
