charliechitlins Posted November 8, 2005 Report Share Posted November 8, 2005 You can make it work for the price of 2 zipties to hold it to the rear fender support. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pedronicman Posted November 8, 2005 Author Report Share Posted November 8, 2005 ta,but all three threaded inserts are split.and the bolts keep coming loose,even with threadlock. i'd rather have the airbox fitting properly like it is meant to. thanks for the advice anyway.

perce Posted November 8, 2005 Report Share Posted November 8, 2005 Try ringing around dealers to if they're breaking any older bikes. Haven springs to mind. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nigel dabster Posted November 9, 2005 Report Share Posted November 9, 2005 Think thats an airbox cover? You could always try the nut things with spikes and some gripfill? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bikespace Posted November 9, 2005 Report Share Posted November 9, 2005 What's an airbox cover? Just spoke to the bloke selling the kit (James). The rear brake lever has gone (I was after that). The airbox is still there and the brass inserts are perfect, but..the airbox has been modified for a 28mm flat slide carb, although the original stub is there if you want to get it hot welded back. Sorry - didn't check price, but the brake lever was reasonable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That sounds like a bargain PM me a price if you manage to dig it out - Cheers Dabster. Mine has been bent so much it takes me 15 minutes to get my foot on it. Are the Beta rumours true then?

nigel dabster Posted November 10, 2005 Report Share Posted November 10, 2005 I will look but I am sure its a good one. Beta is just not for me followed closely by a scorpa (no) then the 4rt(don't think so) which only leaves my favourite the Sherco . OOOh did someone say gasser?
