    Airbox replacement

    Anyone know which airbox's will fit my bike.

    I'm thinking since my old one is all beat to crap and cut up AND I may ditch the pods that I want to put another one in if anyone has one.

    I know I'd have to cut it in half to fit it in the frame, also how would I go about manufacturing the boots from the airbox to the carbs.

    I shoulda kept it all stock.

    Why would you have to cut it in half? Based on this picture, it looks like it just pops apart down the middle.


    Based on what I am seeing here it looks like it just pops apart in the middle and then by removing the mudguard and maybe pushing the rear tire back you can probably slide it up from the bottom.

    At least that's how I'm doing my air box on my 550 right now.

      You have me there. Some ass hole glued mine down the middle then, I thought it was factory glued since it wouldn't pull apart, so I ended up having to cut it out.

      Will most airboxes of a 750 fit ya think?

      I however don't have figures 5-7, mine never came with it.

        According to what I found, the only airboxes that will fit is '85 700 E and '85 700 ES.
