Hi

I looked at the price of forcewinder air intakes i thought i could make my self one, so i used a K&N filter and bit of stainless pipe. I made it out of 60mmOD pipe hence plenty of clearance for all apertures, but when on the warm up valve and i try to ride it just dies it is definitely the bend ie run okay with screamin eagle stage one and with no K&N.

So is it because the air is not entering the carb in a linear flow? (ie straight enough)

Help appreciated

You haven't allowed for the float chamber vent ie. the mounting flange has closed it

if your making another one what are you doing with the origional

could you make more as i have efi and dont think i need that little groove bit

Tidy old tuber mate I would chuck that carb away and get your self a Mikuni, the front disc looks like it needs updating too, and by the way tidy those breather hoses as well
