If your bike is anything like mine (750) then no, you have to take the carbs out to get the airbox out. It's a bit tricky to get it back together too so make sure it's something that you have a little time to accomplish.
Me too !!

This is quite a coincidence. Tonight, I was standing in the garage wondering how to get my recently purchased rear filter box INTO my '81GS750L.
I tried for 10 minutes or so, and wondered....is there a magic trick?:-k
Somebody's gotta know.
Edit: I should also say that the front air box and carbs are off the bike.

Not sure how different the 81 and 82 are but with mine there is no trick really, the rear airbox usually just needs to be put in with the intake side first and slide it down and over the battery and it pops right in.

No problem, I was just reading your other thread, I hope that you are able to get the 750 running soon, they are pretty solid bikes.
