  • Aftermarket Filters & Such

    I'm swapping over to aftermarket air filters. Either individual cone filters that clamp to each carb, or two 2 barrel filters, one that slips over 1&2 and the other on 3&4. My question is which is a good brand for each and also, after this mod, what to do with the crankcase vent hose and such. Oddly enough the nipple off the box is threaded on the inside, but you wouldn't plug that up.

      Neither. Your asking for problems. CV carbs don't like them much. Stick with the OEM air box and filter, it will run much better.

        You all KNOW he isn't going to listen, right? Then he will be back here wondering why it isn't running well.

        I had to check to make sure this wasn't posted on 4/1.

            Hey OP, I can sell you a set of rebuilt carbs. They won't work with pod filters but they look pretty. What do you say?

                    They'd work the same.

                        Hey, if you advise against it I won't. Just looking for some extra room for the battery. You can't adjust the carbs to compensate for this?

                          Holy crap, what size battery are you using? A standard led acid size 12 will fit in there just fine. Need more room get a lithium iron battery, way small. Just don't do what I did and mod the stock tray down to fit it.. Now my backup battery doesn't fit.

                            I'm trying to get the battery as far forward as I can. With how the tail is going to be there will be no fender. Just tubing that contours the seat, and sheet metal under that.

                              +1 the lithium battery I bought was only about half as tall as a normal acid Battery and should last longer.
