Air Box
« on: July 01, 2011, 10:39:26 PM »
Does anyone have a spare air box for the agility 50 they would be willing to sell? I need it specifically for the plenum (hose) that connects the carb to the air box.

Much Appreciated!

Streido: I did check ebay and bought one for $25 and it was a cheap rip off with a flimsy hose. I want a stock filter with a solid hose to connect my Uni air filter to.

Blue: that's what's I'm lookin for is a stock air box to sacrifice the hose and connect my aftermarket filter to. As I mentioned above I bought a stock air box from ebay for only the one hose I need and they sent me a cheap imitation with an air box half the size and a hose flimsy as a straw.

So if anyone else knows where I can find a hose other than the stock air box please let me know. I have checked all the hardware and auto supply stores in the area and unless I can find someone to look through their entire selection of different kinds of hoses with me I need to know what kind to walk in and ask for.

Kinda frustrating considering mine was prefectly fine until I got overly eager and hacked a little too much off of it and its useless.

Can you find someone on ebay parting one out. Another option would be a piece of pvc pipe?

Yea sid this one I just received is from Ebay and its not what they pictured in the ad. So I either take a risk on another $25 to $40 on ebay or try finding something else that will work well. I have thought about PVC but worried it might look a little cheesy... Also might be hard finding the right fit and angles, but its somethin I'm gonna look into today probably.

That's a good idea worth lookin into Streido. First step: find out what/where a plumber's yard is around my part of the state. Hahaha

Around here its mostly just hardware stores n such, may require some assistance from this guy google to find something that specific.

But now that you mention it... That's genius!!! I'm just gonna buy 4 more Uni filters and stick them inside the air box! Problem solved.

Then I will put some jet fuel in the tank....

Would it be cruel to start a thread with "ultimate derestriction/upgrade" and state the above as the best thing that can be done to get performance out your you're scooter?

I got to see this, can you post some pics when your done, if it works?

How you going to link up all 4 filters to the airbox?

Thought 2 small sized ones would be more than enough? But 4 :o  Have you got the space for that?

I was wanting to put mine inside an air box to protect it from rain and also to quieten it down a bit.
