- well ive been pretty busy lately...between bank bailouts, birthdays and bikes there hasnt been much time...still, i recieved a package earlier this month in the mail that nicely coincided with my birthday-boots and membranes for a pair of BS38s...perfect timing...they came with instructions and plenty of pics as found on the JBM website http://jbmindustries.com/ ... i was a bit strapped for time so had to look longingly at them for a while, however, i mounted the boots last weekend-my replacement set of mikesxs ones had gone the way of their predecessors, both sets within a matter of months...i have channelled some choice words and sentiments in both german and maori their way, unfortunately it didnt make me feel any better, i also had a bad feeling about the BS34 boots i installed on my project bike that havent seen any fuel through them yet-the carbs were cleaned and rekitted last august and installed with new boots from mikesxs, so pulled them off to check-deeply cracked and never used-
...after my experiences with this supplier i seriously considered getting a 2 wheeled tractor-but only for a second or two
- naya...i considered fitting the metal covers but took the recommendation to use hose clips-s/s
- the carbs slipped nicely into the boots , locking into place-rock solid, and fitted the KnN's...these are unsupported...JBM claim success with these boots, used unsupported in aircraft installation-so i figure if pilots are prepared to put their lives on the line, and i am sure my XS isnt going to be dropping out of the clouds, i am prepared to risk a little gravel rash
- these look good and feel good...time now to put some time in and see what happens
- the membranes at the moment remain sitting in their packaging as my original ones are still good
- happy riding
