Looks nice enough in a badly lit sort of way. How well do they run without an airbox?

Not my type of bike by a long chalk, but that is a very nice job!

They're fine, you just need to learn how to ride with them.

I've had them, on a slabside, and they're a cunt to set up, the rattling would put your head away and the throttle would break your wrist.

There's a reason they were only meant for race bikes and homologation models.

Got them on my Kawasaki, they're fine, really liked them on my 85 GSXR 750, lovely crisp carbs
