It would be very easier (and cheaper) find a couple of used Mikuni from a Monster or a SS 900.

Hello Francecso,

i have a pair of Mikuni, but i still find a good solution for the air cleaner
The original box modified with fibre is not so good. Are there any KNs thats fits?

Which kind of modification have you made to the airbox?

No matter, I can tell you that for the most of Ducati (and also for Pasos) the only K&N filter is the DU-0900.

But, you could also keep out the airbox, fitting two filters directly on every carburetor.

K & N have 2 modells of that square filter to Ducati. One thinner for normal use and one thicker with "not so much resistant"(more area to air going thru it...)for racing use. I have both modells... I cant remember numbers now, but i think little different ones.

You could always contact these folks and see if they can help you...

I would probably go the Mikuni route, too. I know a guy with the carbs from a '94 SS900-CR that he'd let go for quite cheap. The problem is that the bike had a mild fire and the plastic pieces on the carbs are in different degrees of being melted.

Hello,

I figure the "pod" type is what you are referring. They have a "Universal Fit" category for different filters....

You'd have to determine the dimensions that you need. If you wanted the "Round Tapered (cone shape)" filter, you can get the dimensions here....

My Dellorto carbs have K&N filters on them. I figure they either came in the kit, or a previous owner used a chart like this one to determine what he needed.

I hope this helps.

If at all possible, add a bit of length between the air cleaner and the carb. It vastly improves low end performance and torgue. There's a phenomenon called fuel fog that comes back out of your carb at lower rpms. If you don't contain it, it becomes a variable mix. Add just a few inches of intake trakt and the bottom end mixing becomes much better. This is one of the functions of a stock airbox. Race bikes don't use this because they are never using the low end, but a street bike does all the time. I added some 2" (50mm) rubber elbows to my Dellortos and it improved the idle and low speed drivability alot. I bought them from http://airflowonline.com/ , the part number is 90HL2 Rubber Intake Hose 90 Degree 2" $8.87

I have 36 Dells with the short grey plastic screw-on velocity stacks (bells). I put some UNI foam filter pods on top of those elbows using some 2" aluminum sleeves as joiners. Hope this helps.

When i put 40mm Dellortors to my 750 Paso 2002, i used Malossi intakes(just fitted to 750 Paso conversion) and then i find, that there is ONLY some 3-4mm space between front carburator and rear sylinder(!!!!), so cant use longer manifolds, what that Molossi is... Btw, Malossi manifold coast 2002 28€. I use "pod" type filters in my Dellortos, but K & N makes also such, i think... Anyway that is not "so" important, is it K & N, or some other good brand. Chancing to Dellorotos mean(to me) better engine function, but also fuel consumption rise quite high. They are tuned surely, but that 40mm is little too big to 750 engine, 36mm function better with 750 engine. Elephant 750 have just those 36mm Dells... And here owners are satisfied.
