I seem to be missing the four clips that hold the lid on the airbox. The previous owner just had a piece of tire tube on there to hold things together. My local Ducati spares guy does not seem to have anything that fits. Would it be possible for somebody to take a photo of the clips so I know what I am to try track down.
Also, you can see in the photo the aftermarket Hi-flow filter seems to create a bit of a gap between the lid and the housing. I’m guessing with the proper Ducati filter this is not the case?

Re: Air box clips
Sometimes you can still find some from a Supersport. They work with a little mod.

Re: Air box clips
Thanks, he sent me some of these. Will try and mod them. Should that gap be there tho?

Re: Air box clips
This is the gap with an original paper filter. If I remember well with a K&N it was a little bigger.

Re: Air box clips
Thanks guys , the clips he sent me were the right ones and the gap remains but it all seems to work. When the bike is actually a going concern that is...
