    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

intake boots up /down /left /right ???

If your boots are the same as my 80 850G the small allen head bolt (sync port) should face down and to the outside of the bike.
 
on the 1000 the sync ports are in the head, not the boots.
But... in 1/2 the time it took me to type the question, I went outside and realized the "fat" side is on the bottom, or else the carbs point down.

Your sig says you have a 1000G. That should have the sync ports on the carb boots. Unless somebody has been doing some head-swapping.
 
This is why I laugh so hard when I see my "title is "Forum Mentor" ...

Hmmmm...

So this is the "new" head, the one I took off looks identical, just not nearly as pretty. So what head do I have ???
The bike came with "1085 kit ( he lied, stock bores and pistons ) "ported and polished head" ( head ported so much it's almost scrap, did have a crude polish)
Web cams, RS36 ( with no accel pump ) no name pods, and a stupid-loud Kerker.
Head problems fully detailed in other posts.
Gotta love ebay...

upon further review... I believe you may be mistaken.
The stock spare motor in the garage also has ports in head.
I checked Partsfish.
It's #16 in the 'fiche. and the intakes do not have port on them in 'fiche.
 
I just went out to look at mine to see if I'd gone insane. Yep. I happen to have both my 850GL and 1000G in the garage this winter, and they are different. The 850 has them on the boot, the 1000 has them on the head. Huh. Sorry about that. Your heads look just like my 1000G head.

It's a good thing you figured out for yourself which way the boots go on.
