so im wanting to do something different with my intake ducts... what do you guys think????

sorry its crappy paint edit...




ADDED ONE MORE OPTION

 

if you seal them how will your engine breathe?

 

oh ide come up with something like always...

 

well so far its lookin like people think if it aint broken dont fix it

 

maybe instead of filling it you need to add to it. i'd try some Electric Wire around the opening and across the little grill just inside it. i think it would look badass. but then again its our bike so you do it the way you think looks good.

 

Yes. I vote for this. Double as air horns.





(just brushing up on my photochopping. )

 

i meant something a little more subtle like lighting it up or changing its color....

how sweet would it be to hide an air horn on your bike though...
i'd hit the streets, i can't imagine the fun I could have at the stop lights i bet i could get a guy riding a harley to sh it his pants!!!

 

I voted for stock, but maybe put black pinstriping around them to set them apart???

 

Yeah, I wasn't serious. But I agree with something subtle like a non-restrictive grill. Changing the color too much may look busy and draw away from the rest of the front end, imo. I like the clean look, and honestly I think the way it looks stock is more "ferrari" than anything. Stylish and functional.

 

Filling them or filling them then drilling holes makes the bike look heavy and bulky. Some type of grill inside or stock would be your best bet...but if youre going for a ferrari-esque look and have the fiberglassing skill why wouldnt you copy the intake shape of the 430?

very quick mock up in paint...
