Carb Assembly Removal

I know this is late but maybe it'll help someone else.

TIP: For re-installing the carbs.

I've used this method for years on Honda V4's (not my video btw ... lol):

I used bar clamps with the plastic squeeze handles. Got front throats in, then clamped rear of metal plate to chassis. Gently squeeze, rear throats will get a lot closer to boots, use a large screw driver to gently relieve boot so that it snaps over throat. Bingo. Had mine off and on 3 times one afternoon, no sweat.

 

Sure wish I had that video back when. I'll store that info for the next time.

Thanks for the input.

 

Hi,

I am working on a 500 interceptor project, and the rubber intake boots need a change. I cannot find them anywhere. Can you guys help me out with a link to a website. I found some 750 interceptor intake boots, but do they fit proper?

I bought four soft and pliable OEM boots from my local dealership. Made a huge difference.
