    I just noticed the boots that are under the carbs have some cracks in them around the bolt holes , I know they should be replaced but is that kinda of normal .?

    Needs to be changed as it's going to muck up your air fuel ratio if it is sucking air.

    Local dealer or try Ivan at National Triumph for 2nd hand :upyeah:
