    After looking at your pictures, it dosen't look like you have the carbs attached to the air box properly. When the carbs are placed into the plastic air box there should be a rubber ring/donut between (around) the carb body and the air box. The clamp squeezes the rubber to seal betweent the carb and the plastic. It dosen't look like you have them installed. In one picture it looks as though it is pushed in the air box.



    This photo is off my 80 450e. The pencil point is pushing on the rubber piece. Good luck. Hope this helps.

      Charlie G, that helps a whole ton! So thats what those elusive pieces are wedged in the back. I tried pulling them out a while ago but they are firmly shoved back there. Can they be removed from the airbox at all? Thank you for the picture! Ill definatly try this too.

        You can grab the outside carb boot screw with vice grips to lever it loose. Remove the outside screw and then spin the entire boot and the inside screw may crack loose. Works about 1/2 the time anyway.

          Thank you all for your help! I replaced the carb boots. put better clamps between the airbox and the carbs (could not get the boots out) put everything together and now it runs well! Did 28 miles with it immediatly. Now i just gotta wait for the safety class to get my license. Ill post pics of the bike soon.
