Looks great,well done :thumbup . Did you try the “push the rubbers in the airbox” trick to give yourself more space, or soldiered on with the conventional carb fit routine? . Be interested with your opinion performance wise, now that the bikes good to go.
I had the battery out, undid the airbox mounting bolts and pushed it all the way back. A small squirt of silicone spray on the inlets and they were in position in less than 5 minutes with no scrapes on the knuckles!
Looking forward to tomorrow - after the pass, I'll take it for a small runout to satisfy the itch before the holiday

[/quote]Enjoy your whizz out tomorrow, hope you like it. I suppose you had a dry run on the carb removal when you did the cables, and knew exactly what to expect. I did the same as you for removal, but used the cheat method to give me more room when replacing them. Silicone spray was a great help for sure :thumbup
