No, you just pop those plastic covers out. I've got an install pdf that I'll post once I have a chance to upload it.

Really? Looks like mine is one piece?

Yep really... see the instructions here.

OOO.  I like the "You Need Some Force comment.  I'll definitiely take a longer look at it later.


If no one provides an 1100 for testing within a month or so, I'll see if I can get back to the tuner.

Yeah, you have to pop it out... they heat seal the box pieces together so they are attached very firmly.

I might be able to get a dyno run this weekend,  however I don't have a stock filter / filter cover.   Anyone got a spare loaner?

I'm waiting on confirmation of dyno time,  im not definite yet

I would be happy to provide a 1100, only problem is I am deployed at this time and going back home in December, so, guessing time is an issue I think I'm pretty much out  :(
Also looking at this item with much interest! I have almost chosen the exhaust, will opt for flashed ECU with DP mapping.

Probably the best option would be this MWR system with a new airbox top custom made to get the ram air flow to both the central air filter and the front panel filter, you would have both the benefits of ram intake and increased filter surface...
There is a guy here in Italy trying to do that in cf, but only for himself unfortunately, doesen't have the means to produce it large scale. :(

find out more, it sounds intriguing.

better still, have him post up  his findings and process

I would like to talk to him. I had a similar idea and need a producer of a demo.

I know it sounds exiting, but this guy isn't any close to a pro manufacturee, just him and a friend of his who works cf fiddling in a garage, so don't really know how long it could take and how much time he can spend on it...
I will keep you updated though!
I actually can't believe anyone has made a high performance air box for this bike, anyone with the right machines could easily make a whole new box with ram air intakes between the trellis side gaps with internal velocity stocks and a vertical panel filter...
Bet that would push some performance!

sort of like the SF is what you are thinking.

I have an idea that is a bit different, more internal volume, cleaner air for the trumpets, etc. but I just need a prototype. I can find a manufacturer once I have that.

Sounds fun!
I hope we can soon see the dynos for this MWR system! [popcorn]
