Hendler Air Filters, will these fit?

(1/4) > >>

Athame57:
Does anyone know if these Hendler air filters will fit a CB400F? I'm determined if anything to eliminate the hell of the fitting the airbox chamber back to the rubbers everytime I want to go near the carbs!  ;D

I suspect some change of jetting/needles etc will almost certainly be needed when fitting pods.
I have a set of spare 400/4 carbs that are mounted on the manifold.
I can send you some measurement of the distance between the carb inlet centers and the diameter of the boss the rubber fits onto if that helps.
 
I'm laid low with a bug at the moment, PM me of you want me to take some measurements.

I know absolutely nothing about this from personal experience on my CB400F but everything I've read - and I did a lot of searching - indicates that it's very difficult to sort the carbs out with pods.  I don't think I've seen a single thread anywhere that claimed it actually did anything but reduce the bike's drivability.  OTOH, I'd sure be interested in it if it works!!!

I have a lot of experience with other bikes using aftermarket air filters as well as totally unfiltered velocity stacks with good results.  Not sure why the same wouldn't occur with these 400's/appropriate jetting/needle changes but nothing I've read SO FAR indicates good results in doing so.
