If anybody wants one they are being sold on Ebay

Just thought some of you may be interested - don't know if it's a good price or not.

I bought one too; not received it yet should be here tomorrow, hopefully. I take it it's just swap one for the other and the ecm will compensate for the freer air flow. Whats all this topless bit about? :?

A lot of people have been removing the inner air box cover. Apparently it gives more bottom end grunt and sounds nice :D
Mine's still in place ;)

Does it make any difference though? I understood its meant to allow the air inlet to use ram air effects...?

The only diff I noticed was the sound,its great. May see a couple of hp on dyno but you'll do well to notice it on the road.

The ram air/inner airbox is only going to make a difference at the top end, and who honestly rides at twice the legal motorway limit on the road ?

I'm quite willing to sacrifice some top end speed to get a little more low down grunt, where it will be more useful. 8-) ;)
