i think he means the 2 circle air inlets on the frame the airbox lines up to.

With a full fairing do you think I should use this mod? My bike likes it over 5 on the tach I'm looking for a better top end speed.
I was reading another of your posts Ras and my top in speed is over 141mph with about 9 grand on tach, only did it for a few seconds I got scared.

if you are looking for top end, change your rear sprocket to less teeth.

You know I never thought that the intake holes in the frame would bogg your bike down if exposed. I kept wondering why my bike did that. Also, Where can I get one of those digital guages and the wiring for it.

The exposed frame holes are not the problem with the bikes loss of power at high speeds.

It's the removal of the Hurricanes stock intake airbox snorkels is where the high speed power loss come in to play.

Check out this thread on my high speed problems and corrections.
https://cbrforum.com/m_188338/tm.htm

Bottom line is don't remove any of the Hurricanes stock air box components when building a SF Hurricane or modifications to a stock cane.

Beleive me I have tried my different airbox configurations and this bike runs it's best with the stock airbox using a clean air filter or a K+N and the airbox lid and snorkes in place.

Good luck on your project!

You know, there's nothing better than a little bit of Wal-Mart spray paint. That's what I used to paint the entire thing and it looks a hundred time better than I ever would of imagined. But it did take forever.

Nice work, looks good!

I lowsided my F1 last weekend (hit a gravel patch) and the front fairing is mashed up pretty good, and I don't think I'll be able to find a replacement locally so I started thinking about just turning the bike into a streetfigher. If you don't mind my asking, where did you get the headlight/fairing and signals from?
