Naw that stuff is messy, you really dont want it in your washroom. you would be better off setting up a few hallogen lamps as heat lamps and do it in your garage

Worked at a fiberglass shop for 3 yrs. If you need anything just ask.

well, got the tank up and the box off and #1 adding a kawi or f3 style scoop would be impossible with how tightly the engine is wedged in the frame. and i doubt it would be worth building a smoother airbox bottom for what little volume i could gain. we'll come back to this in the spring when i grab a new daily hack.

I know some guys on the TL boards have taken their lid off, and just put thick foam weather stripping on the underside of their tank, to line up with the edges of the airbox.
