Product Overview
Restore a secure, airtight connection between the carburetors and engine with these replacement carburetor intake manifold boots, designed for compatible Honda VFR400 and RVF400 motorcycles.
Made from durable rubber, these intake insulators help seal the connection between the carburetor assembly and cylinder-head intake ports. Replacing hardened, cracked, or leaking intake boots can help prevent unwanted air leaks that may contribute to unstable idle, hesitation, difficult starting, inconsistent throttle response, or a lean-running condition.
Designed as a direct replacement for Honda OEM 16211-ML0-720, these boots are suitable for compatible VFR400 NC21, NC24, NC30, and RVF400 NC35 applications.

1987–1991 Honda VFR400K / VFR400Z NC21
1987–1988 Honda VFR400R NC24
1989–1992 Honda VFR400R NC30

Your motorcycle should use Honda intake-insulator number 16211-ML0-720 and the original boots should match the shape and dimensions shown in the product images.
Some regional model years and NC21 configurations may differ, so model year alone should not be used as the final fitment confirmation.
Dois-je correspondre au numéro de pièce OEM ?
Yes. Matching the OEM part number is one of the most reliable ways to confirm compatibility.
This product is designed to replace:
16211-ML0-720
16211ML0720
If your original intake boot or Honda parts catalog shows a different number, compare the dimensions and configuration carefully before ordering.
A similar-looking rubber intake boot is not necessarily interchangeable.
À quels modèles ou situations cette pièce ne convient-elle pas ?
This intake manifold boot set is not intended for:
Honda VF400F NC13 using a different intake-insulator design
VFR400 or RVF400 models using a different OEM number

Engine-swapped motorcycles
Applications with different carburetor outlet diameters
Boots with different cylinder-head mounting diameters
Fuel-injected motorcycles without this carburetor intake configuration
Other Honda VFR engine sizes such as VFR750 or VFR800
Do not assume that all Honda V4 motorcycles use the same carburetor intake boots.
