GS Air box Clamps Mikuni.

Whats your opinion on these clamps? Do you think these would stretch , elongate, over time and not fasten so tight? Would it be worthwhile replacing these, or would a quick straighten with a plier make them good as new? They tighten to the point that they butt against each other, ATM.

I dont think they have stretched !!!!!  its more likely the groove where they sit has shrunk and hardened over time.  im sure new rubbers would be back to normal but you can buy them thin jubilee clips that fit in the rubber groove.
