09 xb...right now to find an 07 airbox cheers

you dont need to get an 07 airbox, your 09 is the same. just get the filter, either K&N or Pipercross

i have a 07 bolt with a k&n and drilled holes in the front of the airbox through the mesh - I find i to rev abit better

NEW FILTER FITTED AND HOLES DRILLED...LOT BETTER NOW,,,CHEERS POTTS

Is that a fact, or an impression?

About K&N:

Is this worth doing I have an XB12s 04 model with a K&N filter.

Cheers

and do ''ac delco'' - do a airfilter for a buell ???

also a stock filter new and clean flows better than a k&n until used.

where, what size and how many holes do I nee to drill in my 04 XB12s air box. Any good links to pictures out there.

I read about drilling these holes before I fitted my K&N, but thought this would only let air out of the airbox, the later bikes have a different intake system to mine (I think). please feel free to correct me if I'm wrong

anyone got a pic of the '07 airbox? am curious to see what difference in holes there is compared to '06
no worries found some;




apparently a funnel at the front as well but cant find a pic of that .
