Unobtanium? Breva 1100 airbox-to-throttle bodies boots

[jfear]

Pretty self explanatory: Acquired an engine-less Breva, sourced a mill and have it in-frame and digging through the parts box find that the boots are junk.

I had mopes that Mistral or the like made something what would eliminate the boot altogether, but no.

Has anyone fabbed their own? I wonder if I could dimension one and print out of TPE....

It may be possible to have reproductions made by Clauss Studios. I needed a NLA airbox-to-frame boot for a Cagiva Elefant a few years back, sent it to Greg Clauss and he reproduced it. https://www.claussstudios.com/index.html

Maybe check with Hamlin Cycles?

Ogling those for a bit, it's just that I'll have three airboxes in various states if I pull the trigger 

May have to happen, tho

So your problem is? <scratching head> It's an old low production motorcycle. When you see something you think you might need, it's time to pull the trigger. If you don't, it will be gone soon.

Maybe you'll own 3 in various states to get the tubes.

Maybe try to sell the air boxes to help pay for the purchase of number 4?

Moola and wishful thinking, in addition to fam issues taking my focus off the ball.

Old low production model motorcycle is a double edge sword. There is also the possibility of the parts not selling because nobody needs them. I had a ton of V50 parts that I tried to sell then tried to give away and then toss in the recycle bin because there was no market for them. Old and/or rare do not equate to interest or value.
