So, i noticed the carb support bracket on my bike "pulls" the carb out of the manifold by about 1/8"

is the casting on the xb head slightly different where the bracket mounts? like it seems the heads are a tad fatter, causing my bracket to be bolted slightly further out about 1/8" pulling the carb out of the manifold


so... is there an adjustable one, or are there ones in different sizes?

frustrating. best thing i can come up with is chop it and weld it, or make a 1/8" spacer

Get a carb support bracket for an '04-'06 Sportster since they had the same heads but with a carburetor.
