MG, Its the weld itself that doesn't look pretty seen close up! I'll fit one of seans filters, std jets, lid on to start. & pray thats ok. Because I've played carbs of & on & up & down the road before, & personally would rather get my foreskin stuck in my zip, then repeatedly pull the zip up & down rather than do it again Scooble looked at that, & I think you should do it for function not style. It would be some job to make it look nice as-well as work. You may know ? but when bonding plasti card etc use two pack super glue. Put the adhesive on one edge position it where you want then spray it with the activator.... & Red never mind f%$king on with soldering irons, you'll probly only end up burning ya wa**ing spanners anyway. Get them radial forks sorted & on cause I think I'll go down the same route with bike 3 . Alan.

That is one nice looking airbox.

The benifit of an air ram system, well the standard box is nowhere near big enough and getting enough air in even with 28mm carbs is a problem, let alone with 35mm carbs. The ram air is a way around this problem and yes you can tell a difference. Even if its was just 1 bhp at the top end its worth it as its free bhp. I use a straight tube (cooker hob ducting, cut in half and sandwhiched together) from between the rad and frame back into the airbox. Its a quick mod and its worth the little effort needed.

I do need to make a bigger air box sometime as I'm sure that having a even bigger volumn of cold pressurized air will benifit the engine even more.
