An airbox for a pair of IDFs would be an excellent thing. I'd love to reduce the induction noise caused by the K&N filters. One question is: how are you going to avoid interference with the linkage? The best linkage, by far, is the CB Performance setup, which has those big mounting ears in the way of such an airbox.

The watershields others are referring to were used on the 914-6. It's a "hat" that fits above the top filter plate on each K&N style IDF filters, and prevents the filters from getting water soaked from rain coming in through the engine cover (no rain tray on the 6).

Personally, I think the airbox would be a nicer thing to have.

no, watershields. Look at a 914-6 conversion. They don't make 'em for the type IVs though.

dude...

say it with me... "water shields" (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif) , would allow you to run an open engine (no rain tray) and keep your carbs dry.

please!

ill be a beta tester!

and BTW, gauge pods look SWEET! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

I doubt if fiberglass shields would catch fire, but I have seen a nice pop of fire come out of an out of tune carb (engine) before.

dude...with watershields, you could run like 6" filters and still be covered from rain (IMG:style_emoticons/default/idea.gif)

Morph,

Did you ever consider doing your parts in carbon
I think there'd be a market for that...

cheers,
