Having issues with the parts supplied by Ryca.
Looks like 2005 got a taller carb?

Need a bigger pic, include the whole carb and some of the cylinder.

My guess is you don't have the carb in straight.

I looked at the photo and I'm trying to understand what isn't fitting?

If I use the supplied nylon spacers, the bracket comes down and puts pressure on the carb.

I don't think that's good. :(

I see what you're talking about - how the back side of the carb protrudes above the frame. Normal. Take a look at this photo from the Clymer manual.

Check the motor mounts. See if you have the thing tilted forward a hair.

Some of the stuff on RYCA's is a bit fiddly.......not everything is a perfect fit. Sometimes a bit of adapting it is required.

I snuck a peek at mine and that's about where it is.

You must always keep in mind that all frames are not created equal.
It is not unusual to find some have more room while others have less.
They are not cut and welded by super accurate robotic equipment.
Nope, not at all. I think the manufacturing and assembly lines for the LS650 are populated by factory trainees.
No doubt it is some "Cost Effectiveness Policy".

Some tanks come off with the petcock.
Some don't.
