wouldn't that be a pisser lol

he's not listing any separately though so fingers crossed!

no bet you it hasnt

If not ill cut a hole in it and use it as a helmet

You can use it for a little game of enlarging the airbox.
Start by cutting out the corner filters, and the internal pipework, they can be placed outside the airbox by simply fitting a length of pipe to the cam box cover and route it to a small filter anywhere convenient, but not into the airbox.
Once you've cut the corners out, make up some patches (I used lengths of plastic drainpipe araldited in; in order to get it to mould just heat it with a paint stripper gun and mould it by hand using welding gloves).

This increases the airbox volume.


There are a few more ways you can increase the airbox size, chopping the lower "trough" sections from a donor box, and using them to deepen the ones on your airbox- same thing.
Also you can extend the rear edge a little, even the front section, under the snorkel.

Then give it a try, preferably with dyno evidence, to see if it's any better.

I'm happy to go "halvesies" if anyone see's an airbox and just wants the stacks - I want "just an airbox", to modify - but keep my original!

If this hasnt got stacks ill do you 15 posted thats all i paid if it has them ill do it cheaper

lol sorry about that gutted theyve put a 30 limit on my racetrack now - it's always been a national

makes it easier working on a clean bike - and the cap came off easy which is always a bonus!
i take it you like the throttle mod then
next time you're round wel do the carb balance, tps, sprocket etc

dont forget the plugs & air filter - you'd be as well doing an oil & filter change too cos you can bet theyve not been done for a long time.

Plugs ,fitler on the way mate throttle mod great feels a diffrent bike all together cant wait for that sprocket it will be wheelie good
