Big-D Posted December 9, 2015 Posted December 9, 2015 The carb rubber... The rubber that secures the carb to the head, has snapped on my engine. What others are a direct replacement and from where? It's the outside left cylinder as sitting on the bike engine is gsf1200 Quote

Captain Chaos Posted December 10, 2015 Posted December 10, 2015 Mk1 and Mk2 B12's have different carb rubbers, make sure you order the correct one 1 Quote
Jaydee Posted December 10, 2015 Posted December 10, 2015 Mk1 and Mk2 B12's have different carb rubbers, make sure you order the correct oneI've always heard that mk. 1 and 2 rubbers were non-compatible. Putting together a mk.1 b12 at the mo. It came with mk.2 carbs fitted. I had a set of mk.1 carbs to replace them. I know now I should have taken a pic of a set of Mk. 1 and 2 carbs inlet to inlet as there's roughly only 3mm of a difference between spacing. A bit of a warm up with a hairdryer to soften the manifolds and I don't think it matters if you use mk.1 rubbers on mk.2 carbs and vice-versa. The carbs will pop right on. Quote
Big-D Posted December 10, 2015 Author Posted December 10, 2015 Cheers fatbloke, the rubber hasn't perished just snapped in transit with something leaning on the carb Quote

The carbs will pop right on. and they will pop right off again with the slightest pressure.Been there done that etc Quote
