Black silicone on cracked inlet rubbers
#1
My inlet rubbers have some cracking around them, although they seem to be just surface cracks for now and the bike is not running badly or anything. The cracks have been there a while though and I was just wondering if it would be worthwhile filling them with a little black silicone filler, the high temp kind as a preventative measure?


I have some of that silicone already so I could do that today if it would help slow down the cracking going deeper. If it is worth doing it, would it be best to do it after engine is warmed or on a cold engine? Thinking about heat and expansion of materials etc.
