Difference between L and R intake rubbers on 82 gsx1100?

[gorbys]

I see wemoto is out of the R ones and sets of four sold on Eblag all have the same part number on all fours. So is there any difference? Cant I just flip two of them 180 degrees?

Good question, I was wondering the same just yesterday. Originally they are different indeed. But now the parts fisches say that the left one has been superceded by the right one. And when test fitting the old ones to the head I can't see much difference between them if I just flip around the right side one. So I assume it's fine to use the same part number for all.

They have a little tit on the carb entrance side to indicate the top of the pipe i believe ?

That then defines whats what as far as left and right.

I would have thought you could flip them over but i have no experience with that point

I bought a brand new set of rubbers a little while ago and found they did fit on opposite sides pretty well...one thing i did notice though was the rubber started developing fine cracks along the centre which didn't fill me with confidence so I ended up buying some old ones that seemed to have changed from rubber to granite but still look tip top....the new ones I had were genuine Suzuki too!!...and knocking on £90

I compared the L and the R yesterday and they both have the same curvature so I can't find any reason it wouldn't work. Yeah I noticed they're about 25€ each so not to happy about that but mine have started to crack on the ends. They're still pliable but yeah.

I got a set from Robinsons a few years ago and they said they only had the  lefts or rights can't remember which in stock and they would fit both hands which they did

Just looked today and all marked R . They don't take long to crack but usually just suffice cracks. But next time off gonna shrink tube them.  Have used cycle tube in the past
