hey all, just trying to figure out if the "wobble" on my carb is normal. after reinstalling the CVO carb, I noticed you can kinda move the carb forward and back in the manifold gasket.
is this normal? its not leaking or sucking air, but I dont think I like the play in there. anyone ever put an aftermarket bracket to hold the carb solid? when I was running the bulky hypercharger it used a bracket. maybe I could just install that bracket?

 

Your air cleaner bracket should hold the carb in place.

 

Yeah, usually it is the air cleaner bracket that holds the carb tight. You really don't want it wiggling around while riding or you most likely will develop an intake leak.

An aftermarket bracket isn't a bad idea if your air cleaner doesn't have one.

 

Washers work wonders.

 

okay, I used the hyperchargers bracket. nice polished piece. the bike was purchased with a super sucker, but had no bracket...
Got everything buttoned up and things seem to be running well.
I do hear a hissing, but I believe that would be the "sucker" correct?
