S&s super e
HEY GUYS IS IT POSSIBLE TO CHANGE INTAKE GASKET'S FOR S&S SUPER E ON 1996 1340 WITH OUT TAKING THE CARB APART? ASIDE REMOVING TEAR DROP AND BACKING PLATE. I JUST DON'T WANT TO SCREW WITH THROTTLE CABLE SET UP AS A NOVICE BIKE MECH. I'M A COMMERCIAL PLUMBER AND WANT TO CHANGE MY RUBBERS ON THE INTAKE W TEARING DOWN THE MINIMAL AMOUNT OF PARTS. ONCE I GET THE INTAKE MANIFOLD OUT I'M SURE I'LL DO A CLEAN AND ACCURATE JOB. SHES GOT 51K ON HER AND IT'S NEVER BEEN DONE. I CAN HEAR THE POPPING OF COOLER AIR HITTING SUPER HEATED AIR AND AFTER A 10 MINUTE RUN AT 75MPH SHE WANTS TO DROP DOWN TO 500 RPM'S AND DIE. OTHER THAN THIS SYMPTOM SHE'S QUICK AND STEADY. AND THE GUY THAT USUALLY TAKES CARE OF HER HAS TAKEN I'LL...I HAD AN APPT. TO HAVE HIM DO IT AND ITS BEEN DIAGNOSED AS NEEDING INTAKE RUBBERS. THANK YOU ANY SUGGESTIONS OR TIP'S WOULD BE GREATLY APPRECIATED WILL ANSWER ANY PLUMBING REPAIR QUESTIONS FOR ANYONE NEED EXPERTISE IN WHAT I KNOW BEST FOR YOUR TIME.IN HELPING ME OUT AS I WANT TO MAKE IT TO DELMARVA BIKE WEEK WITH AS LESS GRIEF AS POSSIBLE AND GET BACK IN THE SAME MANNER. THANKS AGAIN AND IF IT'S TOO MUCH FOR MY POLISH BRAIN TO HANDLE I'LL GET A REAL HARLEY MECHANIC TO JUST DO IT FOR ME BUT LOYAL TO MIKE AA SINCE I MOVE UP FROM O.C. MD. I'M NOT IMPRESSED WITH SO CALLED NEW CASTLE COUNTY DE.HARLEY MECHANICS AS ONLY ONE MAN I TRUST IS IN SALISBURY MD. ARMOUR CYCLE TO WORK ON MY CHILD.

Don't use capitals, there's a good chap, it's bad form and looks as if you are shouting at us! To replace the O rings you will have to remove the carb and probably the tank as well. If you haven't worked on your bike before I recommend you get a factory service manual, if you don't have one. That will guide you through the job.
