It was never my goal to make a restoration but simply an old bike I could enjoy riding thus I have tried to save money by buying and repairing some used body parts such as the side panels. The carburetors were beyond my abilities so I sent them to a pro for complete refurbishing. The motor now starts almost instantly but I need new rubber intake boots as the old ones are not sealing right. Here is a link to more pics.

I there a way of seeing the pictures.
All I got from that link is a myriad of pop-up ads.

I'm sorry that Photobucket is where the photos are stored now. I want to move them to a different photo host but been too lazy to do so.

In the meantime, if the wintergreen oil doesn't work, I'm wondering if something like Shin-Etsu grease available from Honda, or any silicone grease for that matter might be of use on the carb boots (or any other tired, old rubber bits on the bike that you're trying to salvage for that matter)?
Another option I may try. The new boots are $13 each which is not bad really but the challenge has been to make do with original parts if possible.
