Cupholders & Noise Reduction
« on: June 13, 2016, 08:45:39 PM »
Hey CF Moto People...
The cupholders in our EX's are junk, pretty much, so I installed some RAM cupholders, one mounted to the grab bar on the right, the other one I (drilled more holes in my machine LOL) & put it on the left of the steering wheel under the 4WD button.

Also, I have the SuperATV boxes on the back of each of our machines; the sound coming out of the intake there was bouncing back into the cab, so we I installed some (very minor league & unprofessional) packing material above the intake filter, it helped some....but the red machine is still way louder, sounds like a rapping noise from that engine, the other one in the black machine is quieter.

Well...you can make them much quieter with this two-stage UniFilter material. I use it and the only time I hear mine is a few seconds at first start up. Just lay the purple filter on top, cut it out and put a hole in the center for the nut. Oil it like any other. And you will officially have two-two stage filters on your machine. There isn't enough in one to make two though. But you will have more then enough to cut out a little filter for the door of your CVT intake. Don't oil that one though. Just pop it out sometimes and give it a few taps.

I don't get it.
You're saying to take this material & wrap it around the outside of the purple filter? The noise is coming out of the purple one & bouncing off of the box in the back, if I take the box out it's a lot quieter. Post a pic, NMK, show me this....

No, replace the purple material with this. The purple material is a single course material that works OK, but lets a lot of the intake noise from the airbox through. This is like a better silencer. Try one first.

Use the purple one as a template and cut it out like this one I did previously. This one was with one thick fine foam that proved to be restrictive. The one in the previous post is the correct one.

I remember with the purple filter, which I keep in the zip-lok,in the box, oiled and ready to install, I could hear the intake noise all the time and with the green I never did...but it was too dense and restrictive. Then I wend to the Red/Yellow Uni material and I only hear it at start-up and maybe once in a while at full throttle...but then I am older and don't hear as well as a once did...lol

Let me ask..you have the TwinAirs in the box like I do..did they come with any kind of internal support like a spring or frame?  Mine didn't and if it ever gets dirty I think it will suck-shut. Fortunately nothing gets by the first filter.
