Post Carb falling off
Figured out a lil thing that has kept my carb from falling off without putting a bracket on it.
I pulled the carb off and used some rvt or rtv whatever it is haha, and put a big bead around the inside the boot that the carb slides into. Then put the carb back on and tightened the clamp.

My carb would fall off everyday I went ride now it's been on for a month and haven't had it fall off yet. Just a lil something I figured I would share with y'all

It will work as long as you don't need to take the carb off for adjustments. Have heard that once the carb has been falling off, the best remedy was to get a new rubber flange and add a mechanical stabalizer.
