Title: Anybody in need of an air box before I toss it? Tossed!
Post by: Teek on April 23, 2008, 11:23:43 PM
It has a small triangle cut out of the side   :dunno_white:    the PO stuffed a piece of thick tubing in to plug it, I took that out and tossed it, was going to save the air box to "restore" the bike to stock if I ever sell it, but I don't think I could get nearly as much for it stock LOL!  I'd just want shipping. The stock airfilter in it is trash, but the bolts holding it on are good.

It runs like a champ, had it up and down Topanga Canyon today, it was just lovely to ride. I'm still pimping it anyway, now need to find someone to put my CF Yosh can on, I want to try to keep the larger mid pipe. It looks really nice, but it's not going to fit as is.

Mod the box to take lunch box or pods and add flex tubing from the front to the box.I seen 1 done that way it was cool but to much work.Jetting must have been hell.
