Hey everyone,
I am in the process of fitting my carb airbox and am having some difficulty. I have the plate that mounts to the carb attached, and the filter modified to fit. The tennis-racket-shaped piece that goes on top of that, however, is shifted all the way to the right side due to interference from the accelerator pump and air filter. This leads to insufficient edge distance on one of the bolt holes that attach the two plates.
Has anyone else encountered this? I guess a workaround might be to enlarge the cutout in the tennis racket.
Here's a photo of how things are aligned (after matching it to my cowl inlet) -- as you can see it's shifted all the way left in this photo.
