Carb rubbers question

<< < (2/3) > >>

mickwinf:
its a fiddly job and different people have different methods. the air filter box should be un bolted and pushed back to give a bit more space. I remove the airbox to carb rubbers or push into airbox out the way. To remove carbs i prefer to unbolt the manifolds from head and remove as an assembly and replace in the same way. then the airbox rubbers have to be squeezed in which is the most fiddly bit. good luck!

DomP:
Get the plasters out ready is my advice, oh and a cold pint for when you've finished, you'll need it.

Peterplank:
Thanks for the replies, I'll report back when I've put the 200 bits back together 😁

Bryanj:
Also learn a different language to practice swearing in so you dont upset the neigbours!

Seabeowner:
I found that a heat gun helps on the carb to inlet manifold rubbers. I have used a set of pattern parts on one of my bikes and they were adequate. £18 or £42 from DSS. Genuine may be available from local Honda dealer.
