35mm intakes

[barahonapr]

Just wondering which intakes are better? Anyone know what brand FAST intakes are? And how are chariots? Any others let me know. Thanks guys

Anyone??

A thick billit one with a built in cross over. It will move the carbs up and back so the LH carb bowl wont hit the clutch arm.

 

Mine is a Boss Racing. White Knuckel also makes a good one. You can replace the intake boots for $15 when need bee.

I believe FAST's intake is a White Knuckle intake. It has the cross hairs in it. It is supose to keep air flowing straight thus increase the intake velocity. They also have a round hole so they would match up to V Force 3's much better. I would port or open up the plasic insert in VForce 3's so they were the same size as the intake's round opening.

The square intake might better suit Vforce 2's. I run V Force 3's with cascade's reed stuffers / retainers. They allow you to remove the plastic insert and have a big square opening.

Is there much of a gain to be had here? I run a boss billet 1 piece thats the circle to match up to my vforce 3's

any intake you can find that DOSENT have that stupid ass built in crossover bullshit. also intakes that use real mikuni carb boots instead of the cheap ass chinese knock off gurantee'd to crack out bullshit.

 

i dont quite know why the junk costs more than the nice stuff.. i personally like the trinity intakes. yes i said trinity. no boost tube no cracked boots easy to port match to reeds built with nice alluminum and tilted corectly to clear the clutch arm most of the time..

 

also any other 2 piece intake works great as well UPP's are nice. and reasonable. there is a guy on sleeze bay out of arizona that has a nice timing plate and also sells intakes those look decent as well.

I've had the Upp intakes without the boost hole. I havn't tried any others so I can't tell you if theres a power difference but Cam from Redline told me they work just as good others. They have been holding up well and I have no complaints plus I like that they are black.

So cam are u saying that the FAST ones or chariot ones aren't any good? Just wondering because I don't want to buy them then have them mess up in a couple rides ya know.

What is wrong with a built in crossover. Mine has genuine Mikuni boots, and doesnt leak. I did yamabond it just in case. You can buy genuine mikuni boots from dennis kirk for 15 bucks or so. If any thing it acts as a girdle.

 

I my banshee originally came with UPP intakes and 34mm PJ's and the carb had to be tilted so the clutch arm wouldn't hit the carb drain / plug. It looked like the perviouse owner bent the lever down and ground down the drain plug as well.

Our intakes can be used with or without the crossover plate unlike others available for sale. We use Mikuni boots and provide new gaskets and hardware. You do not need to use yamabond or anything under our boots.

I could run mine with no cross over plate.

Alright so why is a building in crossover no good?

I am going to guess because some think they leak. I just sealed mine with yamabond.
