Does anyone run with "cone" filters? Any gains? What jets would you have to run??

Yep, I've seen it done.. I would certainly think that there would have to be a performance drop,, but,, I'm sure the owners 'butt dyno ' would say differently..

I'm thinking it would sound way cooler. I know if you run a snowmobile without the airbox it gets louder... i would assume the Valk would be the same.

Better to be judged by 12, then carried by 6.

Louder? Chop the exhaust. Cheaper with no performance decrease.

His name is "Trick Rick" He's a regular on the Florida Board. He's got plenty of pics, just ask him. You can find him here. http://www.valkyrieriders.com/fl/

I also remember Trick Rick saying he would never do it again! Major rework and hassle on the linkage alone, let alone the mods done because of change in the air flow
