How to remove carbs from Honda Shadow VT750?
Apparently, it is easier to remove the carbs with the intake manifold (rubber carb holders) attached to the carbs. I eventually removed the RH side boot, and the carbs slid right out. When installing the carbs, make sure to spray some silicone spray on mating parts to help everything go together with less effort.
