    I own a 90 VFR in decent condition. I have a bad carb air leak that causes the engine to rev up for absolutely no reason. It is the carb boots. Where can I get these for a decent price? Honda dealership? Or a online parts source?
    Please try to help me the best you can. Thanks

    I checked your suggestions and those websites did not have carbuerator boots for my bike. It looks like i just might have to use radiator hose and hose clamps to fix this problem. But may I have been looking in the wrong category for carb boots. I looked under Carb Comp, and Carb Assembly, and some other categories. I did not see anything that looked like a carbuerator boot. Can i do this hose repair? will it work?

    +1 to toecutter's post. servicehonda.com and ronayers.com are my favorite sites to look for weird OEM parts. that, and your bike is 21 years old, almost 22. those boots need to be replaced, if for no other reason, just PM. those stupid things love to dry out and rot and cause all kinds of problems (not to mention that if you wanted to take those carbs off at ANY point now, youd hafta replace them anyways)
