D'oh on the broken bolt!

Sure does look tasty! What's your immediate take?

Oh, did you do it yourself?
Haven't taken it out for a spin yet. I wanted to check in and make sure the air issue was normal.

I did it with the help of a friend. He did most of the disassembling, I fitted the tubes, we both reassembled.

I should be a hand model! Lol

Make sure your airbox is seated properly. There's a rubber/foam gasket in the front there where the inlet is that feeds air to the airbox. I had to readjust mine so the gasket had a good seal going to the front of the airbox.

It's too dark out now. I'll have to see if he can help me again. I didn't disconnect the sensors but was able to pull up the boxes and move around a bit, could have sworn we had that side lined up though.

What happens if i don't fix it?

I'm dropped on H+Rs. The angle and zoom is altering the image a bit I noticed. If you look at my sig pic you can see it more clearly.

If there's a way to get more air flow, then it's worth your while to fix it. It's not going to hurt anything though until you do.
