Carb clearance

[graggy]

Putting my carb on and have no clearance for the air cleaner. Plus the rubber boot on top is directly under the top tube so throttle cable looks like will have issues. What is my best way to fix this? Can I put a offset manifold on it and does it effect the performance? If the offset manifold is the way to go can anyone tell me which one is a good one to get?

I would cut up the filter cover to make it fit

Looking at some offset intakes. What does the 32mm refer to? And what do I have?

Looks to be 40mm but measure the distance between bolts to be sure.

Between the bolts or center to center?

A Hammer!!! Will fix them clearance issues!!! Or try to locate a low profile air cleaner assembly.

You need 40mm bolt spacing on the intake manifold

Have you checked out the G2 reed?

If he can't find the room for an air filter, how will he ever find the room for a G2 reed valve???...Plus we are not even mentioning the need for a windowed piston he would need to use with the reed valve.

What frame is this on? Do you have the ability to move the engine forward? The rear engine mount is designed to be able to be shimmed/spaced for both chain and clearance purposes. Longer studs or bolts may be required, but a spacer would be easy to make as it is literally just a rectangle with 2 holes in it.
