I just had the same problem on my FZS600. I bought them from ebay, there are plenty sellers with different prices. I paid for all 4, 90.50€ including postage from Germany to Romania (10€).
I think it's a good price 20€ per one brand new inlet.
It may be worth checking the rubbers as they could be split only on the "outside". I removed mine and checked them with a dye penetrant and used developer on the inside. No sign of leakage so just filled the "outer cracks with clear silicon sealant and a bit of black marker pen to colour them in. £80 is still in the bank ?
Just one of a few links I've seen where they replace with silicon hose ? looks cheap and durable if not for concours restoration jobs - not sure skill level though?
a few youtube vids showing similar?
Hello
I alo have question about these rubbers. I just baught fazer 1000 year 2003 and I noticed some reather big cracks on my inlet rubbers.
When I drove it home I noticed taht as well as in low and high rps, when I open throttle quick, the engine stays on the same rpm for a second or two and then it starts to accelerate. Or when the engine is cold or when the bike is not moving, and I open the throttle quick the rpm fall pretty much and the it starts to accelerate, or ita also hapens, that the engine dies. Is that the problem beacuse of these cracks on rubbers?
Hey.[/color]I bought new rubbers for my Fazer 600 2002 a few weeks ago. They cost me 79 pounds + shipping. i got them from yambits https://yambits.co.uk/fzs600-fazer-carb-...d5grgmru74 [/color]The ones that were in the bike had some small cracks on them. After removing them i noticed that one was a bit bad but the other ones apart from having hairline cracks on them, it did not go thru the rubbers. [/color]So if i were you i would take them apart first and check. Sometimes the cracks are just superficial and it has not gone thru. Also those rubbers have a hard core inside of them so you might be fine. i have 3 of them if you interested.

Good luck.
I will try to take them off to see how they look, although I can see a little bit of metal trough one, right on the joint of sharp metal and rubber.
Can these rubbers be the cause, of my acceleration problems?
Hey Roky
if you are seen the metal trough one then is bad. And yes you will might have some issues with your bike's performance if there is too much air going in.
But i also would check for other things after you replace those. like spark plugs, air filter.

Any unwanted extra air at all will cause big problems, mainly bogging down on acceleration.

I'm also in the market for some new inlet rubbers. I found some real cheap ones from China on eBay for £15 delivered. I looked again recently and they've gone up to £20. They haven't arrived yet and I'm fully prepared for them to be junk but hey, maybe I'll get lucky.

i think I will also buy something from Cihna. If you get them before I do please report here if they are ok.
