If you mean carb to head go to Honda
Semi Geriatric ex-Honda mechanic and MOT tester (UK version of annual inspection). Garage full of "projects" mostly 500/4 from pre 73 (no road tax in UK).

Remember "Its always in the last place you look" COURSE IT IS YOU STOP LOOKIN THEN!

Avoid cheap aftermarket, they crack asap so they are expensive.
DSS, Cmsnl and where they sell Honda original parts.

Cheapest OEM is likely jtmarks@hvc.rr.com (sells on eBay and is member here). Send him an email with parts numbers and he'll send you a PayPal invoice. Very fair shipping too.
You only go around once in life so it might as well be on a motorcycle.

Thanks.    Getting close to firing it up for the first time since 91.

  If the old ones are not cracked but hard and stiff a heat gun will soften them up long enough to work with them. New is good also if the quality is there.  Old hard and deformed air box boots are a pain in the arse also !
