    So, I received my nice new intake boots in record time thru these guys: very excited , as you can imagine.
    Unfortunately, when I got ready to replace the boots, I noticed that they had sent me four exact same boots.
    They were all for the right hand side.
    I considered just turning two of them upside down, but that won't do.

    :-(

    Had the same problem when I ordered mine from the Stealership a while back.
    Probably a common issue.

    "Son, there are Intake Manifolds ... when a customer calls-in ... you give 'em
    two of these and two of these other ones.
    Do you know what Intake Manifolds are son?"

    "No, sir. I guess, like, they probably, like, fold though ... right?"

    "Your resume said you are familiar with cycle parts."

    "Well yea. But, like, ... Mountain Bikes an' stuff."

    Actually, if I read the Partsnmore catalog correctly they send 4 of the same carb holder for the 80-81 650. I never paid much attention since mine is an '82. I got a set from them which includes 2 right and 2 left.

    As I looked at their site today I noticed that the holders they sell for the 82 have the part numbers Yamaha lists for the 81.
