Anyone got an airbox?

#1 Post by tommy » Tue Mar 16, 2010 7:29 pm

Does anyone want to get rid of an old falco airbox and airboot thingy? Need newer (restrictive) version


Basicly everything you see here:

Thanks :smt001

Hi Tommy, I'm reasonably sure that the airbox stayed the same, just the inlets/airboots changed. I presume you got rid of the old (restrictive) bits, or you wouldn't be asking - but if you want to sell your old-stylee airboots / inlet stuff I'd be interested.

I do have a spare airbox (I'm planning on modding it), but I wouldn't know whether it's old or new or whether there's any difference between them.

airboxes same - inlets different - but little noticeable difference :)


Let's face it, you wouldn't go to a nurse to get good advice on a problem with a Falco - you'd choose an Engineer or a mechanic...

I have the bits you need knocking around somewhere, what sort of price you looking at paying (I always get it wrong, so will try asking instead)?

Found it at the back of the inspection pit in the garage along with two Fazer swingarms, a pile of stock Yamaha and Aprilia exhausts parts, a complete MG-F stainless exhaust system, some (non stolen) Tuono bodywork bits, an FZ6 grabrail and a small porceline wash basin complete with with taps :smt001

It still has the K&N filter in it, you interested in that as well?
