I would do this, but the intake boots from a dealer are almost $30 EACH. I don't mind a good used set, but since this is for the 650 and I'm not sure that the bolt spacing is the same I don't want to go spending $35, let alone $120, on parts I may have to turn around and resell (usually at a loss).
CB650 boots are too small on the carburetor end to accept the throttle bodies. Hoping CB750 boots, fitted to larger carbs, will make up the difference while still being able to mate up. For the headlight assembly, all I'm finding via the usual sources are 70s CB750 headlight buckets. A bit different from what I'm looking for. :/ -Kurt On Mon, Aug 20, 2012 at 10:35 PM, Ross M.
