Air filter size

[Roger]

Does anyone know off hand what the dimensions of the under seat air filter are? I am getting ready to put a ram air system on and thought of using the air box as a place to put a amp. I would take the seat off and check myself but my bike is stored in by buddies garage at the moment. Thanks

The opening that the filter slips into is 6.5"x4.25" oval shaped as

you probably know
also 6.5" deep

What do you do about this snorkel port to prevent moisture from coming in off the engine or dripping off of the tank during a rainstorm? I’ve converted my airbox to storage as well, but I haven’t figured out what to do about the snorkel port after removing the plenum and duct.

It has a drain hole in the bottom.

I guess, if you were going to use the air box for dry storage (or keep your lunch warm) you could fab up a piece of metal, plastic a hinge and some gasket material, and wala, you have it. It does have 4 nice mounting holes and bolts.

I had a roll of heat shrink tape like they use when wrapping and winterizing boats. Taped up the hole and let the engine heat shrink it tight. Has worked so far!

I used the rubber joiner to the removed duct work.
I fabbed an oval disk to snug fit from some 3/4" wood. Replaced the straps and a had a perfect seal.

I read that thread and was going to do the same, but spotted the heat shrink tape and got lazy .

Thanks. Looks like it is going to be big enough by just a little.
