    Chinese Carb Rubbers

    Hi, has anyone used the Chinese copy carb inlet stubs as advertised on Ebay, etc? Interested in fit, quality.
    My ride is an nC30, gotta take carbs off, and while existing rubbers work, it seems like a good time to replace with nice new soft rubbers. I have nightmare memories of working in the past on my 3
    NC30s, and an RC30 I had the priviledge of owning for 5 years back in the days when we could afford such things! Any opinions welcomed.

    The aussies on the 250ccforum seem to like the FZR250 rubbers from China. OE are a kings ransom now and separate from the metal so there's been quite a lot of interest. Apparently they require a trim with a sharp knife to align properly but otherwise are good quality.

    Have you had a look at what's available for an NC30 on https://japan.webike.net/ ?

    Thanks Greg- you were up late last night.
    BTW, i purchased a stand from Icemaestro- unfortunately it doesn't have a bearing mounted pin; would you be interested in modifying it so it will spin when it's in the rear wheel.

    Yep, I get daily emails from Webike- they have some pretty tasty stuff! No inlet stubs, tho.

    Damn... Are factory ones not an option? Just recently I went to my local Honda dealer and got a couple of sets of brand new OEM carby rubbers for my 1989 Honda CBR250R MC19 race bikes. Surely there'll be something for an NC30?

    Do you know if NC35 rubbers fit?

    Sorry Mate didn't even check if it turned! I wonder if a pin from an abba stand or something would do the trick?

    Don't go Chinese carb rubbers. Tried a few years ago, three of them Split in a week. Spend the money and get them from David silver spares or rick Oliver, both oem items. I'm not sure about webike sorry. And get nc35 rubbers for an nc30 - milllion times easier getting carbs on and off with the 45 deg angle at the top.

    Thanks guys- will make enquiries about NC35 ones.
    Mathieu, no sweat about stand, am happy with purchase. Greg made me a stand previously, and having it spin with the rear wheel is invaluable!
