Airbox question
i am thinking about putting an airbox on the R1 TB's but dont know much about making them so i have a couple of questions
1) is it a case of the bigger the better or is there a specific volume they should be?
2) how far should the airbox casing be from the end of the trumpets
3) it it better to have an airbox made so that it goes over my current pipercross filter ot is it better to have a pipe running down into the nose and
have a filter on the end
4) what size into hole into the airbox, 80 or 100mm?
anything else worth mentioning that i have missed?
cheers
