I am in the process of doing a complete engine rebuild on an 89-93 E series.
I have a new clutch basket coming and the ring gear it bolts to is in good condition.
The rubbers which fit over the 6 countersunk screws that bolt the 2 items together feel like they are missing. The basket and gear rotate easily and slightly in relation to each other hitting metal on metal.
I can not find where to buy these rubbers, I have found a supplier that sells rubbers for later models are they the same?
This bike is the SR version PE 28mm carb and oil pump, I already have a new PWK 35mm carb and air box rubber.
Now I need the black rubber intake manifold, will one from a later model (say 1999) fit?
Thank you for helping

The only place I found the basket/gear rubbers was FRP (Fredette). They weren't new..and as I recall he said he couldn't get them.
The pieces I got from him were 'used but still good'.
You can contact him through his website.
As far as the intake question...I have no idea. I DO know that EVERY time an assumption has been made about the SR version (what fits it, what don't), it's been wrong.
If you take some measurements of the hole spacing/layout of your SR flange (that obviously mates to the SR cylinder), I can compare them to mine.
Something else to consider...reeds. That a reed cage that will fit to your 35mm intake boot will FIT into your cylinder is not something I would assume is true.
Of course...someone that had gone through this already would be a useful reference. One rider in Japan did this years back..but I haven't seem him on this forum for a long time...doubt he's an active member. No...I don't recall his user-name either.
Wouldn't hurt to ask Fredette that question. Well..other than to take up his time.
I came across an online SR fiche sometime back. I'll see if I can find that. It may have some useful info on the boot fitment.
Post those measurements if you wanna......
**edit**
Found some fiche pages here. He indicates he got 'em from BikeBandit.
I was hoping the carb boot might look obviously different in some way...but it don't that I can tell.
