Ducksta, do you run your scooter with the engine panel fitted? If so, do you notice any difference on a long(ish) run, when your carb sucks the preheated air? And did the foamfilter ever come loose?

That nice Mr Diablo is the man to talk to
TS1 and PX stay in the garage (future barn finds) out on the GTS 300 when I go out on a scooter.
I know I’ll get there and back

that sounds like an idea..

how do you go on with the foam filter??do they last,do they get clogged up easily??
