shogs Posted December 19, 2008 Report Posted December 19, 2008 Whats the easiest way to get to the top of the cases where the clutch cable is. I have tons of gunk in there and just wanted to clean it. The pain in the ass airbox is in the way obviously and I noticed there are the 2 screws that go from the inside to the outside. Is there a step by step process to get the airbox, all the boots, and the carbs off easier? Just wondering which is the easiest way since i've never done it. (first shee) I realized the title sounds dumb but whatever :biggrin: Quote

(first shee) I realized the title sounds dumb but whatever :biggrin: Unbolt basically everything that it attaches to and everything attached to it. You wil lsee what needs to come off whne you get imto it. But you should get a clymers, then you will know how to do mostly anything on a shee. :thumbsup: Quote
shogs Posted December 19, 2008 Author Report Posted December 19, 2008 Yea i gotcha, I got a clymers just need to start reading it a little more . I know what your trying to say but what I was wondering is how do you gain that one inch of space to push the box forward to get it off? The carbs and all the boots make it hard to even wiggle for me. Quote
regalrocket Posted December 19, 2008 Report Posted December 19, 2008 Pull the seat, and rear plastic. remove the coolant resivoir. Loosen all three clamps for the carbs, very very loose (the carb to reeds, carb to boot, and boot to airbox) Smoosh the carb to airbox boot together, then push it out, do it for both sides Move the wires that run along the side of the airbox off the box. The with the two airbox boot screws off, push the box towards the front of the machine, and then it comes straight up. You will learn how to get those carb to airbox boots off, and really, once you take those off, you can remove the carbs easily, and that will give you more than enough room to work in there. If you remove the tors, you can then just remove the carb tops, and fuel line, and rotate the carbs inward to access the bowls, without remove the carbs. Makes for easy tuning. Quote
