Fitting Keihin Fcr 41's With Oem Airbox To 900sl

Discussion in 'Supersport (1974-2007)' started by KG900SL, May 3, 2015.

  1. Get my FCR 41's tomorrow with dynacoil kit:D

    Those drawings that are supplied in the kit seem to be really CRAP:Arghh:

    Please if possible post LOTS pics with air-box mod for the throttle cable installation.

    Any other tips with opening up the top cover for better induction, fuel delivery pipe/ drain pipe / vent return into tank & routing and setup would be most appreciated.

    Many thanks!

  2. Might it not be simpler to ditch the airbox altogether and install K&N pod filters as with the Ducatisuite Monster?

    He's very helpful.

  4. Chris Kelley is indeed very helpful.

    When I ordered a coil kit from him, he wrapped it up as a Xmas parcel in the hope it would slip through customs - didn't work though :/

    and when my SS started cutting to one cylinder, he helped me pinpoint the problem to the pick-ups - due to a loose alternator nut.

    Definitely one of the good guys :)
     
  5. How I opened my airbox.
    I used a hole-cutter set with different size hole-cutters to achieve this.

  6. Memory shot but yes, I remember similar remarks about the modification pictures. I think brad (the biker boy) from Ozz has included comprehensive instructions and pictures online which certainly help. retaining an original airbox is definitely worthwhile once modded. Will find a link later if you don't/ no one else manages to
     
  7. Thanks for replying above KG :smile: you couldn't possibly have known but you have done an incredible job of restoring my sanity this morning as I encounter yet more more problems :upyeah:
     
  8. K&N used to do a kit which included a frame to hold the filter in place and effectively replaced the whole oem lid with a completely open filter. Do you have that or just the filter?
    Might be worth checking the box before attacking the lid...
     
  9. I only have the filter supplied in the kit, K&N high flow filter.

    I am planning on removing the 2 intake trumpets and cutting another 2 similar sized hols and take it from there.

    Thanks K:)
