I was messing around with the Idea of an Air inlet modification and got a cheap part from a Motorcycle recycling/scrap yard to do this(I don't like to mess up my original parts just in case). The first thing I noticed was this cone in the center of the Air filter, it has it's function but to me it just seemed to be taking up space:  The actual function of that cone is to direct airflow into the air box and prevent turbulence (and the restrictive effects) within the air filter. You have created a high pressure area at the air filter that atmpspheric pressure needs to get through to get into the air box. |

I haven't had any issues with the paint peeling. Been on a couple of 3 hr rides with no issues.  |

Skyshadow - I found nice plastic hole plugs at Home Depot that fit perfectly. Hit them with a little spray paint, a touch of RTV to keep them in there and looks like it came that way from the factory.

I'm actually wanting to get some clean looking metal frame plugs to put back there. But I will do that when i get new frame plugs for the whole bike.

I installed bar-end mirrors. There are two rounded plugs used for the handlebar that I took them off and kept them. When I did my tail-chop and those two plugs fit perfect. |

I converted my CF DUCATI Performance rear hugger from a touring model to a "Sport" model. Took a dremel tool and proceeded to cut off 8" and followed the same basic shape as the original. Very happy with the end result....much more aggressive & sportier!!  |
