Air Intake Modification
« on: August 15, 2020, 09:27:40 PM »
Have read a few discussions on CFMoto Intake Mods here and elsewhere. Didn't give it much
heed until I checked my filter. Foam wrap was clogged to the ...s. Only a few klicks since last cleaning.
I placed a new topic here couple days ago...Cab Dust Control...where I added a Lexan glass fitted
as a rear windshield. With this addition the dust in the cab is pretty much Zero. So a light went off.

As per attachment, I routed the intake up to passenger head level inside the Lexan shield. In my
mind, I should never need to clean/change the filter again. welllllll...ha

All joints are sealed, including the entry seam around the first short nipple.

The result is now a minimum 1 1/2" air flow. There is a small lost due to the thickness of the PVC pipe.
But I figure a 1 1/2" raceway is much better than a plugged filter.

Tested and appears ok. I would appreciate if any possible dangers seen here by anyone.
Still under warrenty....but what the hell...(:

First time checking air filter since this intake modification in 2019. (wasn't heavily used really, but all dusty contractor dirt roads)

Clean as a whistle. (This filter is Grey....not blue) (also cleaned and reused in 2019, therefore dirty-ish appearance).
