RamAir filter for Touring model ?

[kmrmike]

Fitted one a few weeks ago with TOR's to my 2008 Touring. Probably took all of an hour to do, its easy. I left the stock airbox for storage. I then did a 7,600 km trip and couldn't keep the smile off my face, completely different bike. On the instructions its says you can get away with the 12 min tune. But because I did the pipes as well I had it Dyno'd. They seem well worth it and have a extension harness so you can plug the air temp sensor in the back.

Thanks for the info and photos all. I'm wondering if filter would add a few HP--What were your dyno numbers, Gearbox?

I the increase in HP was 98 to 137

I guess now I gotta do it too... LOL

The torque curve showed a even increase of just below 40% right across the range so as stated I ended up with a completely different bike. The Ramair Filter seems to go well with the TOR Pipes and cat bypass assembly which all three cost me less than AU$1,000. “I’m still amazed that the set of TOR pipes were only AU$420 brand new, delivered.”

Do you have any photos of the touring with the bear claw on? Any clearance problems. You previously posted ease of install. Any problems since install? fuel mileage change not directly related to wrist twist?

What pipe did you use for the bypass? I've been looking for one. Thanks!

On the R3T the cats are in the mufflers, no cat bypass is needed. Any aftermarket pipes delete the cats.

I knew that, I just want an aftermarket crossover for mine, haven't found one stateside. If you know of one, many thanks!

Just out of curiosity, why would you want to replace the stock part? Also, I'm not aware of anyone who makes a replacement.

The stock part is apparently very restrictive and I'd like a freer flowing setup. There is one available for the Roadster that is also a cat in the muffler type.
