Im sure that there is a way to connect a universal cone or cyl. type K&N filter directly to the carb.
Im sure there is a universal that will fit it. Did I say Im sure of it? Honestly, because of the horrid weather, and now a starter problem, I have been too lazy to take the bike in, but even the dealership says they can put a K&N on any bike. Im just hoping someone here will have more knowledge and write somethign up about it. Login or Register to Remove Ads |

Just EXACTLY what makes you sooooo sure? Aren't you the same guy who was soooo sure he could get a "kit" to mod the engine up to 350 cc ? :??: I love your enthusiasm, really. It just needs to be directed a little better. :roll:

Ey, dummy.
Yes, the kit works. It is a drop in big bore kit. Erm .. and K&N makes univeral filters that clamp down on the carb throat. Just currious to know which is best. Piece of work? Yer a piece of ass. Instead of trying to sort it, you are just flapping fingers. There is a way to do anything. Dropping a K&N filter in is hardly a custom shop job. ... Sigh ... :roll: Login or Register to Remove Ads |

You want a pod that has the exact same dimensions as that in the RU-1822 kit. The only difference is that you want a single pod. You can do a search on the K&N website by dimension. Get the numbers from RU-1822 and do a search for something just like it.

Uh yea, .. ok guy.
I thought this board was for answers, questions, and help .. not for trolls. I was just hoping someone had an exact answer as to the best filter for the carb. So far Johnathan180 has it right for that carb, and on the ninja that setup works perfectly. For the way the frame is set up on the GZ however, Im not sure that a pod of this shape and dimention would be best. Ignoring "Easy Riders" comments, Im wondering if anyone has set up their bike with a K&N? Thanks gentleman ... and ... (cough) ladies.. |

The filter that I mentioned fits under the gas tank. It is an oval pod with the inlet-tube offset from center. This places the majority of the filter below the inlet on the carb and low enough to fit under the tank. I would run out and buy one and take you a picture, but I just spent a good bit on cash on parts for my '76 MG Midget.
If this pod doesn't work, I'll send you half of the price. Honest 'injun. -Jonathan |

I'll take that. You wanna buy 'em and I'll paypal you? It might be the end of the week though. I have to buy some formula for the wee-man.
