DNA kit
 
I have read all the posts (I think) and have located a DNA dealer near me but has anyone fitted the kit to their bike yet ?
Would be interested in any feedback.
Having had 6 WR enduro bikes many of the guys drilled holes in the airbox and removed the snorkel to improve fueling etc.

On the Z the filter is on the inlet to the airbox, not the outlet to the engine as most other bikes are. Because of this the integrity of the box cannot be compromised or unfiltered air will enter the engine. There is a thread here somewhere about people reducing or removing the snorkel but remember it also serves to keep water out. (I know JMo has reduced hers). But in reality, unless you want to competely re-design your air box theres nothing you can do with it.

Just my 2 cents....OGR

Good point, i can't believe no one has tried the kit yet :102:

Nor can I.

One of the reason why no one has yet tried this kit is perhaps the fact that they are hard to get and I can't find a stockist in UK as yet. So ideally for the time being they are only available directly from DNA Filters Ltd. and hopefully through us in the near future. :)

I don't have the DNA kit, but I do have a K&N filter fitted, with the snorkel removed from the airbox, so the airbox lid is the same as the DNA one.
I think it's a worthwhile mod, as the motor does feel more "snappy", but I haven't had the time to get it on a dyno and check it out. My next mod when time allows will be a PCIII and a dyno session!

Well i don't like waiting so i will be the test pilot, mine ordered and should arrive Tuesday from the UK distributer :024:

Hi Den, who is the UK distributer? How does the price compare with offtheroad.de ?

Has anyone ordered from DNA direct or contacted the bloke who has registered here? Any discounts on offer?

Should also note that I don't think the DNA guy recommends adding the filter and snorkel replacement cover without adjusting fuelling via a Power commander or such like. I think it's ok with the filter alone but snorkel removal may be a step too far.

Be careful with this folks because I'm speaking from experience having holed a piston on an 1150GS just by adding a can and y-piece!

UK distributor is based in Hereford B R Special tuning http://www.motorcycle-exhausts.co.uk/index.php
