Intake manifolds

[Craig54]

When refitting the intake manifolds does the L and R marks face up or down??
Thanks

(I said I could do it I didnt say I was any good at it)

Hi Craig, the L and R face up on the intake boots. The vacuum ports on the boot is also a good reference. You must have them at an angle that makes them accessible for the screw in adapters to be attached. If the boots are in the wrong position then these vacuum screw thingos are on the inside under the carbs. Very inaccessible.

BTW I just fitted my new ones last night to the 650 head.

Craig fix up a signature so we know what type of bike you are working on without you having to mention it in every post.

the vacum screws are part of the head and are on the bottom side which I tought was odd
