  • Airbox help appreciated

    Apparently in fixing one problem it led to another. I can't seem to re-connect the fuel line from the petcock to the T between carbs 1&2 and I'm pretty sure I'll have to remove the airbox. Any tips would be greatly appreciated, or if someone could tell me how it could be done without removing either the carbs or airbox. Thanks in advance.

        Wish I could help, but I bought my bike and it didn't come with an airbox. Just got my airbox from Arsenic today!

          Yes... Pull the carbs off... pull the airbox, remove the filter.

          Put your fuel line on, put the air box on the carbs reaching inside of it with a hand to help seat them on the carbs. Put back in the air filter, and put the whole unit back on the bike.

            Yeah what Krey said. Much easier to work the airbox onto the carbs OFF the bike.

              Also helps to pop the filter out when you're trying to work the boots back on. Just stick your hand on in there and get nasty.
              90% of motorcycle forum members do not have a service manual for their bike.
