if not my question is about my 81 csr 1000, i noticed tonight the intakes from airbox to carb are out of shape and warped from age, there not fitting to well on carbs, is it better to go with pod filters anyway? i was thinking of running them, and i assume i would need to re jet carb?
also tried firing up bike tonight after its sat for couple months, carbs are getting gas but not into cyclinder. Is there any other reason why this would happen other than dirty carb? i just thought at least one of them would get gas, i checked both outer cylinders threw plugs and both were dry, losened screw for carb bowl and gas was present in bowls, any ideas?

It all boils down to your preference and application.
as for as your carb problem I am just learning so I am not the go to person on this but, I will throw this out there.
before condemming the carbs or assuming no gas is entering by way of plugs arent wet do some checking.
making sure you have spark etc..

In any event, don't damage or dispose of the stock air box. [You know why.]

The main benefit for me with pods is that they make carbs much easier to remove and refit. But compared to simply having an engine that runs well and isn't bothered with strong winds and/or rain, it's usually a small inconvenience.
