[madmav]

ok boys

Well the reasone behind these for me anyway is this!

Firstly . i do have a carbon Airbox and in truth it Gains me Jack ****!

I have weighed both carbon and standard boxes and there is not a nats cock in it

when a bike /car/lorry is made the manufacturer spends millions on Reasearch and development,and to this end normaly comes out with somthing that is "A" durable,"B" cost efective and so on

so we then find the need to throw away this wealth of knowledge and replace it with what is no more in (ROAD) terms than a piece of cosmetic junk

wich usualy cost's in this case (CARBON AIRBOX) £350.00 ish

so my idea was simply to make for (myself) and trading of the back of all the reasearch and developmentFrom ducati!!!

a substitute , cosmetic part that will still give you the look of a full carbon air box(And beleive me it does) for a fraction of the price of a full carbon airbox!

But i can tell you for a fact if ducati came up with the idea then most of you would be floking to the shop to buy them!!!!!

just my opinion

ps i'm on a budget and i know a lot of the guys on here are to!!
