906 Mikuni conversion filters

Post by badhabrace »

Hi everyone and Happy 2008!
I recently installed a set of 900ss mikunis on my 90 906 paso. I had to construct an air filter set up using 2 K&N air filters. It works, but its probably the most hideous thing you'll ever see!
My question for you is what filters have everyone else been using with success? I have no factory air box to work with, so thats not an option. Ideas anyone? Thanks for your advice in advance and ride safe!

I converted jst some mothes ago my 750 Paso to Mikunis with Dynojet kit stage 1. and i used quite similar bomull pod filters, as K & N are, but they were some much cheaper model mande in far east, anyway liiks same, as much expensive. Price was 14€ / 2 filters. I havent driven my bike yet, but seems, that it runs well outside garrage. Test drive shall happen next April, or may.... :smoke:

Bob,

here some pictures of my Mikuni TDMR carbs and a friend`s ex-906 with Keihin carbs. Also with original Mikunis the position in the frame is the same.
