[QUOTE="John Roberts, post: 39753, member: 126"] Re: So I didn't buy a motorcycle... I don't know about cold air package but I would probably upgrade to a K&N air filter, and I think there was some input baffling (to reduce input honk), that I just removed. JR edit- speaking of cold air package, I recall one night with my old 1954 ford (with a bored out 312ci) I removed the heater blower from where it was mounted in the fender and connected some dryer duct between that air intake to the mouth of my stock air filter. There was no element in the stock air filter, and I left the top cover off, so I could also suck air in from the engine compartment, so it was mostly some extra cool air. But as i recall it ran pretty good, until the motor threw a connecting rod, that same night (coincidence).
