Looking good...I like the creative solution to eliminating the airbox. Did that require a rejet?

Nice.. that's sort of what I had in mind for doing a manifold to replace the airbox and use a pair of K&N style filters.

I like the front half of the bike and I like what you've done to add the cone filter in place of the air box. I've often thought of a similar design in my head if one were to want to eliminate the air box yet not have the troubles of trying to install pods.

From the seat back though, it looks like a completely separate bike...almost like you've welded two different bikes together. I think its because of the whitewall on the tire and maybe because it has no fender at all.

I can certainly appreciate the hard work you've put into it  thumb

definitely recommend a single filter in the four carbs, because they use the atmosphere of pressure to regulate the air in each entry

Yes, that's what I meant. I think folks trying to put individual pods or cones on CV carbs would have better luck to do something like what you've done...so all the carbs share the same air point of entry.
