When you say RSVR, I take it you mean the GenII bike?

If so ..... dunno. You could be the first to explore this - though I expect it may come with a few challenges to solve

I'd say it depends on the kit and the year of the bike.

The Edwards airbox is unlikely to fit, but a Renegade should.

Ah a MilleR

Probably be fine - certainly if a Renegade.

If something else (??) then the snorkel inlets may be different as the pathways through the Mille's frame are more circular.

I think that's a Hooked version of a Renegade.
It'll fit fine - no problem

Looks like a hooked one to me. Still good and provides the same grin factor

basically another airkit. no real change from the renegade, just made by someone else.. the filter for the vent sits next to the air filter on the hooked
