Ramair installed

Kevm said:

So I just installed my Black Friday bargain Ramair. I was a little worried as I'd always taken bikes to the shop for this sort of think but I had the instructions plus a video off Youtube so I decided to give it a go.

It was easy.The Youtube video and the instructions are both good. Everything is exactly as described and everything fits perfectly, including the filter itself. The only tricky bit is that space is tight and I could have done with my wife's hands (without the nails obviously) instead of mine

When I started it up first the idle was a bit up and down. I put that down to the bike probably never having been run when it's cold. I now have a HansO tune installed and it seems fine;idles smoothly and revs crisply.

£100 well spent I think; Just need some warmer weather to give it a road test.

Enjoy the sound of the environment being sucked thru that filter !
Just be sure not to tighten the clips too much on the inlets . Less is more and more can result in damage to the inlet rubbers on the filter . An easily made , but expensive mistake ! Also the ramair needs surprisingly little filter oil to work best , again a case of less is more !

In a nutshell, not a lot! Every five years or whenever the filter looks particularly dirty if you ride in lots of dust .
Ramair sell a foam filter cleaning , 're charging kit for around £20 . The kit contains instructions and two surprisingly small bottles of cleaner and filter tack , which , so they state , last a long time . Mine has lasted a very long time , 3 years and I'm still waiting for my filter to get dirty enough to need cleaning !

Hi I'm installing a Ramair and Viking muffler to the stock header. Do you know if the tune you received from Hanso would suit my setup?
