Default I need another pictoral assistance.

I need somebody to snap me a picture of their carburetor clamps with the carbs removed.

I'm putting mine back on now, and can't seem to put them on in a way that I can access all of the screws.

I looked at a microfiche image, and copied the way they are lined up in the image but it is impossible to access the clamps on the carb side.

Much appreciated!

if you lay your carb boots out like theyre going to be on the motor like your sitting on the bike looking down and i can slightly view the screws i can help you out its just hard to explain and im not around my bike to take pictures. but one side of the carb boots say "carb side" they actually fit in the grooves on the carb. you will only beable to access 2 screws on each side at a time. you wont beable to get to the screws on the carb side without getting the carbs off first. you actuall have to put them on the intake runners first and clamp them down then pop your carbs in to the boots and then clamp those down next

Very helpful, thanks.

How the heck do you tighten the top clamps? There's no clear path for a screwdriver when the carbs are pushed on.

Adurrrrr... I bet if I clamped them to the carbs first I could push the boots onto the head then tighten the bottom clamps.

I hate having stupid moments lol

You put the boots on the carbs first and as you put them on you tighten them. Then you push your carbs on to your bike with the boots on and use those other sets of screws to tighten your carbs down to the intake runners.
