Pod Filters, what do with Air Switch Hose
04 Jun 2008 11:04
Probably a silly questions, but I'm looking to delete the stock airbox and put in air pods. The only problem I have is what to do with the hose that goes from the airbox to the air switch. Does that need to have a filter put on or what?
Anyone have a recommendations for good pod filters? I was looking at the K&N system, but its expensive!

Yes, any line or hose that was filtered needs to have its own filter if you go with pods.

Personally? .... remove the "smog" system and put it on a shelf in your garage. Run a hose from cover to cover and cap off vacuum fittings. Way cleans up the engine.
K&N's are the best, cost more but will last longer than the bike will!

Yeah and the crankcase breather you can put an angled hose on instead of a filter so junk doesn't fall in it. That little can looking thing underneath the carbs on the block.
