    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.

I ordered new carb to cylinder head boots even though I thought the ones I had on the bike were fine. The bike needs to be as trustworthy as I can make it and I figured what the hell. I know I needed new clamps and I wanted to do some service on the carbs so an extra $100 bucks or so and I could change the whole line. I have swapped out a bunch of the bikes "run" components but hadn't changed boots.

I ordered my boots from parts outlaw and I received boots all marked "R". Four boots marked "R" or two pair of the same boots. The boots on my bike have "R" and "L".

I am assuming I can use two on the right side when looking down as if seated with "R" facing straight up and two on the left side with the "R" straight down. Just wanted to check before I started to take things apart tomorrow. It does read "old SKU" for left side.

You need two marked R and two marked L (like you ordered).
Has to do with what direction the intake tube is slanted.
An no, turing one over will not work on other side.

Sound like the supplier messed up. Check the part numbers. Maybe two of the boots marked R were identified by the part number that should have been the L.

And if you are returning parts.... maybe review why you ordered 8 clamps.

Get the orings and replacement screw sets from Cycle Orings.

The LH boot supercedes to the RH part number. You just run them with the R side down on the LH side. You don't need O-rings or screws because of the design of the 16 valve head. Dar
 
Oh, I was speaking from expereince with 850G and 1100G. Doahhh
