I would think you would benefit from a similar set up to the one I have now Greebo, looking at the photos of your filters there is an abrupt step from the filter to the carb, and also no distance between the two for the air to "straighten out", I am in Derby so if you want to take a ride over we could fit my filters to your bike and see what happens, I'm on the dyno Saturday but we can arrange it after that if you want to, cheers Mark.
Thans for that tip, might help resolve some of my bmw r90/6 issues when I get onto that later in the summer, I just need to get some velocity stacks to mach the massive carbs.... may also get applied to a cb550 special or custom in the future. Have you checked the silkaflex is ok around fuel?
