Ram Air

<< < (2/2)

Bryanj:
The Ram Air did serve a purpose in keeping the plugs cooler, and being a pain for mechanics, but then the 380 and 550 were incredibly reliable, in all the time working on then only ever fitted one crank and that was rumbly mains through standing for yeard

andy120t:
My early zx6r has that. The air makes an incredible noise as it comes in...a bit like a tupperware box full of gravel being shaken. I'm sure it does more than just make a nice noise though?!

Arch stanton:
The Ram air cowling made the 380/550 a pig to ride in the rain.
As the sparks would rather dance over the cowl rather than go fown the plug. A gimmick but looked pretty trick.
