That would cause problems.  When they mention the "spray test", don't use starting fluid or WD-40.  Your best bet is some carburetor cleaner.  For a short term test, if you can do it without destroying the boot, wrap some vinyl electrical tape (other choice: duct tape) around the boot and see if it runs better.  If so, then your hunt for new airbox-to-carb boots is on.

Glad you got it going.  Nice feeling, isn't it?  If I weren't helping my wife's buying and selling business, and swapping the front shocks on my truck, my Shadow would have been out there.  After a cold and snowy winter, it was 70 in central Ohio.  Warmer weather is coming.
