So, maybe he died? Sent from my SM-G530T using Tapatalk

You know... if you know anything about machining, you could very easily fab a fuel heater that would utilize the engine heat to heat the fuel before being carbed into a cold intake in addition to insulating the manifold. You could do it out of a small block of stainless steel. I'd say probably...

Y'all just made up my mind for me. Haha. Sent from my LG-K550 using Tapatalk

Yeeeaaahhh... I'm good on that. I'll save my money. Just curious if the rubber insulates the intake is all. Lol. Sent from my LG-K550 using Tapatalk

I disagree. That wouldn't be overkill at all, if it works. Pushing cool air and fuel all the way to the cylinder will give you a better combustion. Let me know if it works! Sent from my SM-G530T using Tapatalk

And I was hoping to see the ENTIRE seat. Haha. Sent from my SM-G530T using Tapatalk

All.of that is the same on mine. This box on mine is inside. Sent from my SM-G530T using Tapatalk

I switched mine for simplicity. Yes, you do lose some top end, but it is more fuel efficient if you ride your bike as daily means, which I intend on doing with mine. Also, my original carbs were 31mm, whereas the Weber is 32mm, opening to 36mm when full throttle. I like a progressive because it...

It was simple to install. The hardest part is tuning to your motor, which still wasn't that bad. Sent from my SM-G530T using Tapatalk

Tuning the intake is as simple as tuning a VW now. Sent from my SM-G530T using Tapatalk

I actually salvage do it from a 77 GL1000 that is in my buddy's salvage yard. Had been sitting for about 6 years. Traded him all 4 of my good stock carbs. Paid $40 for a rebuild kit. And it installed easier than the 4 carbs setup. Simply install the manifold, attach the carb, and run your push...

Ah. That explains what the broken rubber strap is there for. Sent from my SM-G530T using Tapatalk

Also, I'd love to see more pics of the seat that is on your newest bike. It looks pretty sweet from what I can see, but I'm only seeing it in pieces. Sent from my SM-G530T using Tapatalk

Awesome!! Thank you UT!! That would be a huge help. Sent from my SM-G530T using Tapatalk

Well, I just tried to Google images of its location, and all it is showing me is fuse boxes from the 75-77 models, even though I specifically searched for 1978 GL1000s. I'm hoping cruiserlover can help me out, being as he just purchased a 78 as a project. I commented on his thread to ask him...

Dude, please tell me where your friggin fuse box is mounted on yours? Mine is flopping around inside by my coils, and there are no mounting points on it. I'm trying to.organize my rat's nest before I start trying to customize the wiring system. Sent from my SM-G530T using Tapatalk

Hmmmm. I think I'm gonna Google some images and see what I can figure out. It'll be easier for me to strip down the system if I get it a little more organized. Sent from my SM-G530T using Tapatalk

So, there are no mounting points on it, and no place for it on the top shelter framework. Lol. I guess I'll just leave it flopping around in there until I get ready to do the racing style wiring. Sent from my SM-G530T using Tapatalk

Well, yeah. Lol. It should be, being as my scooter is a 78 model, as previously stated. Just giving you a hard time, Brian. Haha. Sent from my SM-G530T using Tapatalk
