The heap I bought a month ago has "Power Filters" rather than a stock air box. This sucks weasels.

Can anyone procure an airbox for this model? If not - are there any other custom filters I can use that actually work?

Thanks fullas!

Perfect!

I would be happy to part with $200 or so to improve my carburetion. Let me know what needs to be done for me to get that! I also need the filter element I presume.

Cheers man!

I have tried to find out - with little success.

No the GPX has horizontal carbs - ZXR is downdraft.

If Gammaguy can't supply for some reason the early 16v 900 airbox may fit.
There were never very many GPX750's in NZ so bits will be scarce.
Fairly common in OZ though.

I don't get why it isn't running properly? We used to do pods on everything....
Has it been tuned properly by someone who knows what they are doing?
