Don't use those! Either OEM Honda ones, still available, or Randakk, or I think JR carries good ones too.

Re: Carb Boot Quality
The ones that I carry are made by the same vendor that Honda uses.

Re: Carb Boot Quality
Tiny trademark molded into the parts. So small it just appears as a defect in the mold, near microscopic.
I compared them to known removed and new components from Honda.

Re: Carb Boot Quality
I am also a known and reputable supplier, doing more R&D than most others will or can.
I'm the guy that tested and qualified all the CBX components for Randall Washington, aka Randakk's Cycle Shakk when he owned that business.
If I say it's GOOD, then it is.
