For Buells ? Yes. By law they have to provide spares for 10 years - but there's no legalese to prevent them charging anything they like, AFAIK.

Why don't you put some tape on the airbox cutouts?

You need to identify what effect you are trying to create...

True! Good idea to tape over slot in airbox.......which one of the three? :?






Observe the surprisingly small intakes under the seat of an original Triumph Rocket 3. Eating baked beans may be cheaper than a nitrus kit! lOl

The effect I am trying to create (much like my Stealth adjustments we are not talking absolutes here) probably relates to subtle gas flow behaviour on part throttle roll on situations. :idea:

I would also tape off part of all three slots on the airbox, top downwards! ;)
