mick in canada told me about cutting out a length of plastic from inside the airbox, it's supposed to smooth out the airflow within the airbox, once the strip of plastic is cut out, i will have to smooth over what is left behind. i saw a picture of it somewhere, if i can find it i'll post it. i ...

Something doesn't sound right on your bike to me. When you fitted back the standard filter did you notice if it was still there, or put back the channel that the standard air filter's up-stand sits in, it's attached to the air box lid (see first pic in link below). If that is missing you could be ...

I'd fit the + 2 rear sprocket, I think you'll find that will definitely help. I have the same set-up as Paul (Stratman) and I like him have no flat spot's either.

Greetings gents. re: airbox mod http://www.burniemorgan.com/firestorm/airfilter.html Click on the link and everything is explained in detail In regards to the bar ends, the new ones are indeed longer, heavier (and made of brass). They also came with a cruise control-type threaded throttle lock ...

Hello All,

Has anyone tried cutting the plastic strip down the centre of the airbox?
I came across it here (http://www.burniemorgan.com/firestorm/airfilter.html) and was wondering if it is worth doing or if there is any noticeable performance difference?

Cheers!
