velocity stacks

[al_roethlisberger]

I got a pair of prototype velocity stacks for my V11 from this guy.. guzzidave@hotmail.com they're AWESOME.. They weren't too expensive either, shoot him an email.  Great guy, really nice and great feedback via email.  Can't say enough good things.

 

Here is a pic of my Guzzi with the stacks on her.. This is on our way to Mid-Ohio for the vintage races.. camping gear baby!

Yeah, I've asked for these for Christmas

 

I'm ordering with both the UNI and K&N filters to see which works out better. My conversation with Dave Blunk said they don't know which flows/protects better, but went with the UNI initially simply because they were lighter.

For gawds sake,dont fit K&N's,Ratchet'll be down beating you over the head with a Marzocchi fork spring.

Heh, yeah... I've lurking on that thread ..and finally just posted a quickie

 

 

But I've been running the K&Ns on bikes for years with no known ill-effects.

 

 

If I do get the kit above, I plan to buy both the UNI and K&N filters that fit the stacks and just see which works out better.

 

The kit comes with UNIs, but they'll send some K&Ns with it for another $50.

Can't you fit one of each, and then we can measure the wear differences in each cylinder

[al_roethlisberger]

Wow, now that is an excellent idea I'll get right on that, along with a device to provide carefully "measured" exposure to finely sorted particulates evenly to both cylinder intakes.

Well over to Jason then. He has pods and he's a scientist specialising in very small things I couldn't think of anyone more suitably qualified.

TAKE 2 K&N FILTERS CUT OUT ENDS BOND/GLUE ON TO VELOCITY STACKS. EASY!!!!!!!

But where do you get the velocity stacks from?

 

Well, you also have to rig-up some sort of bracketry to support the side-panels if you've removed your airbox... which I did a while back:

 

Pods versus Lidless

 

I actually like the looks of the side panels, but go with or without at times depending on the mood

I find it funny the damn things run better WITHOUT anything in the way of the TB's.... makes me wonder Hmmmm. just put a fluted Velocity stack on there and install a mesh screen baddabing youre done. Cause honestly I don't know how any craps gonna get in there and I don't think it will shave more than a few miles off the end of the life of the bike. I mean come on smoke up it only kills you in the end right?

That's your chances of selling your bike on this forum reduced to zero, then.

I'm awarding you a bodge point.

Oh, hey now- that's just rude. Or are you talking about the particulates?

HAHA Sweeeet. I haven't done the velocity stacks but I like the look of only stacks on some custom choppers and what not. But obviously they don't intend to ever ride them
