I have installed a K&N filter, dropped the snorkel and made the adjustments to the carby based on that.
If I now want to pull the restrictor plate and open out the other side of the box, will this mean the mains will need changing again and I do more tuning?
The Thunderbike mechanic told me that by doing all these changes to our airboxes we loose some economy. He said that a certain amount of vapour is caught in the box and then reused. By removing the box or opening it up, he believes it will effect fuel usage noticably. So, to those of you that have done this full modification, has it affected the economy much?
I imagine most of us are not too worried about a slightly more expensive run, if the power is there to use in a real way.
