So.... now I have installed my ProDesign pro flow kit w/K&N filter. The instructions say to pull the crank case vent hose out @1/2 inch. This allows the K&N filter to fit, but will dirt get into my crank case through this hose? I think the flow of air comes out of this hose, but now there is no negative pressure (vacuum) from the motor. I'm sure some gasses may come out as the piston moves down, but will it draw in dirt as it moves up? Also, no airbox lid. I'm open to any thoughts, opinions, experiences, or flat out correct answers. Maybe a breather filter should be placed on the hose.... or maybe I'm just paranoid! What has everyone done with this hose?
I'll wait for a few more replies. If this hose is going to be a hastle, then I will just go with a foam filter. Will the Uni filter work with the ProDesign pro flow billet plenum? If not, what will I need?
I shoved mine up against my K&N and it ran just fine and never had anything get in it...... i was going to get one of those little breather filters but i got the sparks racing filter instead and it eliminated that problem......
Thanks for the suggestions. For now I have pushed the hose tight against the filter and I will start looking for a good price on the Uni. Still don't know if I need a special adapter for the Uni. Do I need to run with a prefilter over the Uni w/o airbox lid? :mellow:
I have a 2004 450r right now, that was built before I bought it an I’m looking for a mostly stock trx. I was wondering what year would be the best to get, I’d like electric start. Also would it be worth my time switching out the aftermarket a arms and elka shocks back to stock and putting all...
So with a trip to hatfield mccoy looming, the bike having over 100 hours since the last build (and barely burning any oil woot!) with multiple dune trips and hard sand riding by my house-its time. The hatfield trip will be the last for the current setup.
Current setup is: 12.5:1 CP piston on a...
I have not had a chance to test any of these and wonder if anybody has any of them installed on their bike. If you do, did you feel any improved performance? Would you buy it again?
Let me start by saying my quad is a 2008 ER. I bought it used but the guy hadn't even put an entire tank of gas through it. It looked absolutely brand new in every aspect. It was completely stock, so I know the history of all of the mods. My quad now only has about 15 or 20 hours on it. I...
