Air filter box top Gasket

#1

Post by chewy999 »

Hi everyone, I have been trying to obtain the gasket, part no.17219-463-300, for the air filter box for my GL1100 but as with a lot of parts, it is now obsolete! Does anyone know where I might get one, or do you know what else may be used instead?

I saw a post... Randakks.com.... where the fix was a piece of vinyl tubing. It was sliced lengthwise through one side and wrapped around the box. Then the cover was put on.
Whatever I suggest here should be given ample time for a moderator to delicately correct. I apologize in advance.

Instead of vinyl tubing, maybe some sort of soft rubber tubing would work better...
