You'll notice that the snorkel also has two holes in the top of it. As I understand it, the two holes allow the rest of the airbox to act as a resonance...

Thanks to all that replied. I didn't notice the flute holes on the snorkle...only the three smog lines coming from the charcoal cannister?! But that's a whole...

i'm assuming that the buell OEM spark plug wires are carbon-type. if that's the case, how long can they be expected to last before they break down enough to...

Do you have an Ohmeter, they are carbon, the test specs are 1625-3796 Ohms for 6.5 inch cable and 5000-11680 for 20 inch cable. As a matter of pracice, I...

I am kicking around the idea of venting the case to alleviate the pressure. Figuring that if the case does not build up pressure, the piston will have an...

there's actually a bit of controversy over that very subject. it's true that if the case pressure is lowered, the piston travels easier, but the trouble is how...
If you decide to change your wires, check into a set made by Nology. They're expensive but I've never imagined that it's possible to feel the power gain by ...

Good site Wolf. So it seems up in the air as for the amount of help it may or may not give on performance. But it seems to be a given that it would reduce...

I learned about the wires accidentally while looking for high performance spark plugs. I talked to the sales rep from Nology who sold me a set of their plugs ...
are those the nology hot wires? i'm a little wary of capacitor-type wires, especially on an electronic-ignition engine. capacitor wires change the spark...
Yes they are. I have talked to them and they are and they do loose some wattage which means a slightly smaller gap seems to be in order. A TM plug could be a ...

yeah, i just checked my wires' resistance today, and i discovered that the rear wire had some sort of divot in it near the boot. it's not touching anything...
These original wires passed the ohmmeter test easily. Even though the insulation was worn right thru. The real test of a wire is when thousands of volts are...
