was there ever a definitive answer to the air filter debate on a 125 dragstar xvs

whether to stay with the restrictive standard filter or change for aftermarket substitute

I have re- jetted and it is ok but feel it could do more with better breathing

all answers whether scientific or personal opinions are welcome

Id say go for it mate, I have short ram cone filters on my 650 carbs and although the power gains are minimal i can certainly feel a bit more pull in the old girl.

at least if you wack some on your 125 your be the first and can offer some advice if some one else want to do the same. ;)

A simple swap is to put in a K&N air filter they flow@ 15-20% more air. Cv carbs can be a bitch to set up without the air box.

Another though is why not try and biuld a ram air snorkel to force more air in the box?
