airbox

<< < (2/2)

ricardo:
Many thanks to you all. getting carbs on was ok it was just the airbox. From what you say I was on the right track so will persevere. Anyone know a cheap supplier of knuckle skin. I'm getting a bit short of it.

Cheers

Ricardo

taysidedragon:
Warm the rubbers with a hot air gun or hair dryer first. That makes them much more flexible for a few minutes, just long enough to get the air box on. Makes a big difference.

robvangulik:
I always put the airbox on the carbs when they are off the bike, and then slide the assembly in the frame from the right side. In my eyes the only way to make sure the air inlet is as smooth as possible on all four carbs.

ricardo:
Thanks for those further suggestions. That's my job for today.

robvangulik:
It is a really tight fit, best is to remove the large oval rubber from the rear of the airbox (is easy to replace later through the empty airfilterbox).
