Summary: the vital link between air and motor
The rubber fitting is the junction part between the output of your air box and the entry of your carburetor. Although apparently simple, this sleeve has a crucial role: it must guarantee a Perfect sealing. The slightest air intake between the air box and the carburettor can result in dust or sand, causing premature wear (or even a motor case) irreparable.

💡 Michel's trick
"The rubber connection is like the tires: we do not notice that they are tired only when it is too late. The trick: Every disassembly of your air box, inspect the rubber folding it slightly. If you see micro-cracks, replace it immediately, do not attempt to repair it with tape. My Pro Council: To facilitate mounting without using fat lubricants (which could slide the fitting once mounted with vibrations), use some soapy water. Once the water dries, the rubber adheres perfectly to the plastic. "
