Vent covers


Recommended Posts

Posted

Fitted some standard vents instead of the mini scoops and just wondered what to do with the undertray on the induction side.

Obviously it'll let more air to the filter if i omit it but i'm worried about the filter getting a soaking in this wonderful scottish summer.

Already had the filter get damp a couple of times with the scoops and it runs like a bag o bolts til it drys out.

Running a apexi induction kit btw.

So have you removed yours or just left it standard ?

Other option would be to drill some holes i suppose ?

i would leave the cover on and only take it off when it's dry and your going to give it large or keep one scoop for this reason too

i've bought myself a mini scoop for track and 1/4 mile events but i shall keep it standard for normal everyday use

Steve, Id deffo keep or put undertrays in place[Y] think you would add to problems of water getting into the Apexi if you left it open. If you create an  enclosed area (ie to keep heat away) around the filter and make use of the hole in the wing to place a wider diameter of pipe in the wing (ie remove the piping from the original airbox) then you should get the air in that you need.

Thats what Squirrel advised me[:D]  

Got that chip fitted yet?

Exhaust went on last weekend but didn't get the chip on til yesterday and all i can say is ****in hell what a difference, wasn't sure at first but went for a run last night and the clutch was complaining due to the extra power, trick seems to be keep the revs up and turbo spinning and boy does it fly when you nail it [:P]

Been fitting my brake stopper this morning as well as the vents so just the suspension left once i find some new shocks and get my other bits.

Oh and a new clutch soon i think [:D]

Will it ever end ? Even contemplated selling the bike and building a monster engine seeing as it's always bloody raining.

Nice one[Y]

Was down your way(ish) yesterday with the old man (got his caravan so was delivering it to site). Just realised why I hate touring caravans so much[:@] they should all be kept off the Rd lol.

anyway, regarding selling your bike i have to say I SERIOUSLY thought about it myself but know I'll only regret it. So, DONT DO IT![:D]
