take the carbs off again and have a look at the writing on the edge around the hole. Make a note of it and tell us what you've got.
Sorry to take so long I really need them but won't have the numbers until thurs or Friday due to unforeseen circumstances!

If you mega desparate could you not make some out of some big bore rubber hose, like car radiator hose pipe or something? As a quick bodge till you find some proper ones?

Thanks Ian, I have thought about this but the problem is how it fixes to cylinder head with the two lugs, I have read about someone who made his own for a different bike by making his own from a mold etc. Cost a fortune more than I have, but am getting the feeling I will never get some as I am advertising everywher and even have a few breaker searchs going on! I have some amalgamation tape and liquid rubber on order to see if I can do something!

soz mate didnt realise that they are all rubber, me 3en1 has alli inlet stubs with a separate (bit of pipe) carb rubber.
There is some 3tj rrsp inlet rubbers on ebay but there a bit expensive! Like £44.50 each! item number : 250777204291

I dunno if they fit yours, but would it be worth asking kayla very nicely if she could make you a set like a bit of alli pipe with lugs welded on, or maybe try some off a 3en1 if they'd fit like ebay item number ; 220580984414 ?
Theres also a set of 400 genesis ones on ebay aswell.

Cheers
Ian

No, cos I can't weld ally yet! But thank you for the plug ;)

MarkT- You could try ringing Allens Performance, they might be able to help out with some new carb rubbers that'll fit.
