Manifold bands
Nurse Julie:
Hi Chaps
I'm trying to find some of the metal bands that attach the carbs to the manifold at the front and the air box at the back on my 400/4. At present there are just ordinary stainless jubilee clips there but although they do a perfectly reasonable job, I don't like them and they have got to go. What I understand is that originally they were black with a screw through to tighten them. DSS do a substitute but they are approx £5 each and I would need 4 of 1 part number and 4 of another, therefore about £40 in all. Does anyone know of a similar band that is available at a lower price ?.
Ta in advance
Julie :-* :-*

Don't have an answer to your question... just to say mine are silver, not black. Don't know of there were variants. Hope someone had an answer
Nurse Julie:
Im sure someone will correct me if i'm wrong Tom ::) ::). Maybe I'm thinking that if the DSS ones are black then the original were black also. Believe it or not but I have found some in shocking pink, jade green, sunrise yellow and purple but no black, how weird is that ;D ;D

Go for shocking pink Julie, nobody would want to nick it, plus it would make a girly owner statement! :))
Nurse Julie:
That's true Hairy. With matching nail varnish and pink bike boots it would look like a bloody dolly mixture going along the road ;D ;D ;D
