I really want to replace the air filter chamber under the tank with some small pod filters. I want to use the area for the electricals that have up to now been hidden in the headlight casing. I realize this is going to massively increase air flow so of course I will re-jet. I also plan on running a straight exhaust so overall airflow is really going to increase.
Question is, will that be too much of an increase? Could it screw up my compression (or something)? I don't know...
Anyway, here's what I'm looking at under the tank:
With it removed:
Just the box section is 11.5cm high from the top of the carb
it's 16.5cm long and 11cm wide
The carb intakes are 47mm 49mm wide with 23mm 24mm between intakes.
Some guys just put a pod filter on the air filter chamber and remove only the airbox. I assume that would maintain the proper air flow dynamics while increasing the flow.
I'm gonna have to talk to some mechanics for this one....
