So, here's the question... My Mrs. has a '84 GPZ550 that I have stripped the carbs off of again to clean them up and install a Dyno jet kit. In the past I have done this and remember that fitting the boots back on was a major pain in the @ss! I did a quick search on your site but didnt come up with anything... Is there a simple way to reinstall the boots between the carbs and the airbox? Thanks in advance, Paul

The ZRX doesn't have pods, but the GS1100 with the Keihin CRs does as does the 580cc Yamaha 500 flattracker with the VM38 AND the 660cc J&M framed flattracker with the TM40-6... and they all work very well, thank you :lol:
