al_roethlisberger Posted January 17, 2003 Posted January 17, 2003 Moto Guzzi V11 Sport/LeMans Intake Kit & Air-Filter FAQ ********************************************** Introduction: ---------------- Several vendors are producing kits to eliminate the top of the airbox, or completely remove the airbox from the V11 Sport/LeMans intake system entirely. Additionally, there are multiple options to convert from the OEM paper element, to reuseable and high-flow filters, or replace the single filter with individual "pods" attached to the intake runners. Depending on one's goals, many of these options are viable, and can be had as complete kits, or simply as "shade tree" modifications by replacing the filters oneself, or cutting multiple holes in the air-box lid for "increased flow". In this example, many have advocated cutting 6 2" holes in the lid. Although there are only a few complete kits available today, other vendors are looking into more complex air-box modifications scheduled to be available later in 2003. Listed below are URLs and contact information for several of the best-known vendors providing these kits, along with some general information and links to online discussions.
