Sorry, i am looking for a picture that can easy explain. The ID of these should be the OD of the chrome bar that goes the length of the carbs on top. Can't remember what the bloody bar is called but, these should act like a bush.

Spot on trig they go under the screws along the carb bar on top they stop you over tightening the clamps and snapping them.There 3 bolts and 1 countersunk screw.
Well done mate will have to call you eagle eye from now on
