Air Box
11/29/09 at 11:25:50
 
I am trying to remove my air box and removed the L & R screws per the Cylmer. Removed or moved the wires, etc. It is loose at the top, but appears to be bolted or screwed somewhere on the bottom left. Ideas please.  Undecided

Do those 2 also hold the fender on? Cause even if I can get them out w/o removing the rear wheel, I could probably never get them back in. My plan is to go to a K&N cone air filter therefore elimenating the need for the airbox. I may end up using the OEM type replacement in the airbox. Any difference in the filtration between the two?

I cant remember. I just remember finding them when I pulled the airbox.

Doesn't the side cover on one side attach to the airbox? Mine had the airbox removed when I bought it, but he included the side covers in a box, and I can't figure out where they attach.

I took out one on each side up top, but it looks like there are two coming thru the fender from the wheel side. Tough to get at. Also I am not sure if they hold the fender on (along with 2 others). I may cut the thing out and just leave the bolts and anchors.  Undecided

I ended up cutting the front and top out of the air box. This was not an easy task, but I only nicked one wire.   Smiley This left room for the K&N and more room for the wires, plus I can move the rectifier there. I also retained the side cover mounts. Once I got it back together it looks real good and I gained a ton of room!  Cool

Well, I'm thinking of a wet bar and a little dance floor. Actually, just room for all the wires so I don't have to jam them in between the air box and battery case. I can just bundle them up and tie rap them in a corner.

Thanks, i thought i was the only person who had to cut out the air box.   Did it for the same reason, to make way for the cone filter direct mount to the carb.  I ended up getting some long zip ties and routed the wires and ignition box between the frame under the seat.   Installed hot tub and hammock adjacent to wet bar.  stratman
