I have a small problem... This elbow that goes into the side of the carb is loose... I was at the dealership ordering a new splash guard for the left carb and was informed to get this elbow i would have to buy a new carb... Any objections to me JB welding this bitch in place? The carb is otherwise fine just some jackass twisted this enough that the ribs that hold it in place were worn down enough to let it wiggle out... I assume this could cause all sorts of problems if it were to happen (again) while riding. Im guessing air could be sucked in, fuel spillage, or starving one carb for fuel if it were leaking..
