You talking like a chin scoop? One that goes under the frame and picks up air from low down?

I am wanting like a Y in front of the motor to work as a funnel to funnel all the air onto the motor.

Spin the head around and point the carbs forward. It's been done with Twins, might be able to do it with a 4.

what good would that do 4 me? It wont make me run any cooler. Then i would have to get special pipe made and would have to worry about tire hitting carbs and flipping water and dirt in there. It would make it completely unstreetable in my opinion. I just need more air to flow across the head is all i want.

Oops. There goes reading comprehension. I read it as "I want to get all the air INTO the motor". As in through the carbs. Which explains my confusion with how that sheet metal set-up would funnel air to the carbs.

Just pretend I was never here.
