G'day all, I thought you might enjoy this video on Youtube. The bloke conducts experiments using different concoctions to restore hardened rubber components. The rubber caps on the Mikuni carbs off my YDS are rock hard and 'un-gettable',so I was looking for a solution to the problem. I really enjoyed the video and the bloke did a top,thorough job in making it. I've bought the alcohol and Wintergreen Oil and hope it all works with my parts. Hope you enjoy the vid as much as I did ..
OK , have never seen nothing like that . Have the top section's been cut off where the cables run through ? Where doe's the little rubber grommet go ? Are these what your after ? 156-14169-00 Carburetor Cap - Sumo Rubber The business below , Yambit's are brilliant to deal with also , that's alway's a bonus these day's.

Yes,they're the ones Chief..I spoke to Mikuni OZ and they can't supply.. After seeing the video,I thought I want to try this,so I bought some Wintergreen Oil... should have asked here first though shouldn't I have !! Thanks for those links... I'll be visiting if my experiment fails ..
