Uni in stock air box with a "custom" (jerry rigged) lid (and soon to be Uni vent plugs) for summer

No lid for winter.

My 87 runs better with the airbox with UNI filter, no lid. This is because I don't let the weather decide if I'm going riding or not.

As stated before make sure the filter is properly oiled (filter  oil not motor oil)  Also, I always like to apply a film or wheel bearing (or any type) of grease to the bottom lip of the air filter.  by bottom lip, I mean the 3/4 inch wide part that makes contact with the air box.  The factory filter set ups are not the best and dont clamp on, so the grease is an added measure of insurance to keep stuff from going under and around the filter.

Whats PO stand for?I,m not up to date on this shorthand lingo.The cage is the plastic piece the OE filter is wrapped around.The bolt that holds the filter on goes through the center.

Yep.Carefully pull the OE one off the plastic cage and install the new Uni.Make sure you have the uni oiled as well.Highly doubt you,ll need to rejet.

I run a uni filter with the stock airbox/lid removed on my 87 250.If you ride in any wet or muddy areas leave the airbox on imo.

So I'll have to go bigger jets if I delete the airbox?

I Think I'll keep the airbox for now.
