3D printed oem air box lids...
Have you run any of these on your bike yet? If so did it require you to lean the main jet?
The reason I ask was......Years ago I had a customer that modified his stock lid similar to what you had pictured on a 50 hp plus 250. It added enough restriction that it required the main jet to be leaned a couple of sizes. I did not dyno it but I would estimate it lost about 5% to 6% due to the 5% to 6% reduction in fuel flow it took to get it to not rich miss fire at wide open throttle.

Jerry, I have not. I was just passing along the information on a new part being available. Thank you very much for sharing your findings on the performance side of things regarding similar products.

Haha, these are mine. The final product will be reaction injection molded, sort of an ABS like material in black. High end 3D printing like this is too costly.
I gave one to Mike Sabo to test out, and he's running it with no issues. If Dave Moore didn't tell him to take it off, then I assume it's breathing well. ;D

Hi, thanks! I've been around for a while, just never posted. This is the only part I have at the moment. The response has been positive enough to make a batch, see how they do, and maybe I'll look at some other ideas later on. I design parts in the medical space for my day job, but it's way more fun making stuff for the 250R!! ;D

Yes it is. Thanks for supporting

id want one completely solid. oem lids are getting ridiculous price. just looking for something to put on there when I wash the R after races.

Mike Sabo's 250R shreds since the last rebuild, that's awesome that you're a part of it.
