**** yah! OK, the problem with XC is we hit mud and water all the time. Now the front part of the no box option is wide open to stuff falling off the hood, down the stem, and all over the filter. Well, even with an outerwares it will still get on the filter. So, what to do?

I bought some rubber sheeting to come up with a nice shroud. 6" X 10" worked wonderfull. Too bad I bout a 3' X 5' piece!!

Here are some pics of the setup and abuse.... As you can see the outwares still got dirty from the dust, but the filter looks new!

I hit water that was 1" from covering my motor completely. Thats when I turned around.

Yeah, I never went back and added to the bad luck thread. When she was upside down last weekend it bent....oh, and when i was taking my clutch cover off to adjust the rekluse one of the 6mm head bolts stripped and i had to take a dremmel to it to fit another socket on to take it off.

Dang, I don't need to be riding.

That is impressive, that filter sure is clean for how dirty your poor quad is. That's for the info Happy.

Plug in the front is for my helmet light and the screen on the side is my hour meter. As you can see it has 0 hours on it...brand new quad!! lol I am having trouble getting it to register my coil. So, a nology kit is on the way.

There is a mounting spot and a little plastic piece to protect it. All in the kit.
