Re: Here we go!!!
I have seent he complete air horn taken off down to the main body just at the "rim" where the air cleaner sits. Doing it does eliminate the choke plate on the carb, cold weather starts will be a bit more difficult but not impossible.

Re: Here we go!!!
Russ- Do you have any room between the rack and the oil pan? Maybe we can drop the motor a little and squeeze a little more room out of it for ya?

Re: Here we go!!!
Air cleaner really turned out nice, cool to have a "almost" stock piece but still be different.
