Think I might of come up with a way to get a air tight seal on the Evo style air box..

I have used a 12” bicycle inner tube (£3 Halfords) and stretched it round the box and I’ve put the lid back down and inflated it (you can just access the valve with a pump) enough to push against the sides of the tank (approx 8psi) and it creates a pressured seal!

Even started the bike to see, it’s worked perfect, with sealing all the ducts and doing that, I can feel a even bigger rush of air now when I put my hand over the front ports..

You don't need another hobby, it would dilute your thinking on the RSV Wink

Someone’s got to this this mad sh&t up!

But the inner tube will create a pressured seal, so the airbox will be able to build a higher pressure. 👍
