It's funny how comments in another thread will lead to new questions.
I was talking to vegaswingnut one day about the air box. He told me he had read that not using the air box could cause overheating issues with the front two cylinders. The box on my bike was modified with 4 1" holes in the lid, but there is also a very old piece duct tape covering those holes. The PO lied to me and told me there was a K&N filter in there and there was no filter :sensored: I really prefer the way the bike sounds with a filter than without(just threw that in there, I know we aren't talking about not using a filter).
If I find out here I don't need the box, and it would run better without it, I would make this mod.
~O~
