As above really, have got the bike carbs mounted but obviously need an air filter on.

Do I need part of the airbox from the bike or can I just bolt a blank filter back onto the carb bodies.

Any help and of photo's appreciated.

Ian

on my set of r1 carbs i got a piper cross filter with a blank back plate and then just cut holes out accordingly, now i have r1 throttle bodies i use an r1 box as a template as it has the air temp sensor built into it and then modded the old back plate to fit.

hope this helps

I used a chopped down ST airbox and made up a carbon fibre plenum to take it to a tubular type cone filter.

mnr racing can do you a plate cutout and the filter for about 75 squids i think
u2u marc n if you want to know more or mnrltd.co.uk

Bogg brothers just used Pu on a set of R1's

Photo looks like what I need to do. Thanks for the info.

I think it depends what carbs you have and what filter you want to fit. I used Kawasaki Keihins and used the original back plate with rubber trumpets. I then got a K&N challenger filter and grafted that on. I have some pics i could send you if you U2U me your email address.

I used these pipercross foam socks. Got them from Burtonpower

I made my own, with the aid of the original carb connecting rubber bits...



...but I have a habit of doing things the hard way!
