I'd buy 2 of those today. 1 for an 88' 250R, and 1 for an 86' 250R. I'll pay upfront before you manufacture them. Somebody get ahold of this guy! lol Who else would ponie up for 1?  Is there anybody else who could make these?

Could always buy one of these from me. Box is big enough for a 9" k&n or a smaller 6-7" uni and a battery. It gets an outerwears water repellant lid. And doesn't have to be out of diamond plate can do regular aluminum as well. It also gets a drain hole with plug in the bottom.

Here is a picture of a 250 airbox sblt500 used to do and hopefully will do again if time permits him.  It in my opinion is the best looking airbox for these machines.

Anyone have pictures of an aluminum or steel airbox replacement? Like an airbox made out of aluminum or steel is what I mean not just an airbox delete bracket. Also why is every post I read from sublunacy so argumentative and combative? Do you really need to be so condescending and wrong most of the time to make yourself feel good or something?

You might fit a bigger filter in there. But I don't know which one.

Take a pic of what you've done & someone else might be able to steer you in the right direction.

ZillaJoe--I just got my airbox delete bracket and some other things from Shawn (SBLT500)  It looks like a nice quality piece.  If you go with the uni dual layer they make a 6 Inch long and an 8" long  (uni part number UP-6400st and up-8400st)  I just ordered a AEM filter from Summit Racing part number (21-2059BF) that is a 9" long unit. Aem also makes an outer pre-filter to fit the 9" filter--its part number is AEM #1-4001.   I didnt check into the K&N filter numbers but I am sure they make a bunch.

Hey dez what I did was cut the front of airbox out took the Carb to air box boot to autozone and found a filter that fit snug in side the boot so my air filter just sits in the air box. I made a bracket that goes across the top of the filter to hold her down the air box delete I was going to make  sb makes  so for 70 buck ill probly pick one up from him. Any one know the filter size they run on the delete kit. Id like it to be the same size as the Carb to airbox boot.

15 years off and on ALLWAYS as the headmechanic. I have been building bikes for 20 years. The Last Machinist I worked With got a Rude Awakening aswell. My Opinions Are real/ Because of that I have done successfull product design for a huge racing company SIXSIXONE back in 2002.

Wait till you see some stuff i have done to my LT. Besides> if you cant handle some critisism on design<shouldnt be playing. PERIOD
Im not asking to make parts out of ruby because its the hardest and most brilliant form of aluminum on earth lol I read University text for fun.

Now How many vehicle models does that fliter kit fit? Just one?


well post up some pics, i would like to be amazed..

WHY does the bracket have to be welded in place? The bracket looks awefull homemade the way you have it. Please offer that with just a mounting spot or 3? People can make there own brackets that suit them. DONE! now everybody that has an LT and Wants the LT500 manifold and carb sytem  can use your gear. Hell there are many bikes that could use something like that. You owe me one  D?

False! Larry's intake is every bit a quality piece! I spend way too much money on aftermarket parts and was very pleased with it in person. Same thing with SBLT500's pieces.....you should see the aluminum LT250 airbox he did.

i made an aluminum airbox for my 500.  made it probably 3 years ago now.  never showed it off.  wanted to see how it held up then made more.  never made more!  has held up good. 

i have a airbox delete like this kit and i make an aluminum adapter to fit inside the stock airbox for a clamp on filter.

Post by: Rogue1970 on November 14, 2012, 12:04:48 pm
Very nice set up! Is there any reason I couldent have an airbox built to house the filter and use your kit? I.e. clearances with rear shock, swingarm, brake rotor, etc. I have never seen an aftermarket lt500 airbox.

Like mentioned above.  This kit is an airbox delete kit.  Both SBLT and we made this type of kit.  Your best bet would be like Rider414 mentioned in using the Duncan Racing adapter.  This bolts to the OEM airbox and lets you put on an aftermarket filter.

Somebody could design an aftermarket airbox for the Zilla pretty easily I believe.  There should be no shock clearance issues as the OEM carb to filter boot goes around the shock.  You would need to come up with a good design for the air intake though.  I'm assuming you would want to keep water/mud out of the box, but allow enough air into the air box to make some good power. 

Good luck in what ever you decide to do.

If you want to run a airbox but want a better set-up the Duncan Racing adapter for the stock airbox looks like the hot ticket.

After talking with my partner, he is thinking we might be done with the intakes.  The first set of the v2's was discounted because the v1 could develop cracks.  We'll see what the final verdict would be.... possibly have to take prepayments so we don't have to be out of pocket so much dough when waiting for them to sell.

I just don't think the 250's are in the plans.

That would probably help but the intake is already isolated from the motor via the rubber intake boot. I think the original issue was really a material thickness problem.
but the motor is solidly mount to the frame which will still transfer the mechanical oscillations to the intake adapter since the intake is solidly mounted to the frame.

Time will tell.  My intake I got from 500 Fanatic several years ago also broke an arm that had to be welded back on.  We are going to look around for a few washers to help with any vibration.  We'll see.

Dave Kuskie should be contacting you for one ASAP!

Title: Re: LT500 Airbox replacement Intake
Post by: Rogue1970 on September 30, 2012, 03:51:03 pm
We were thinking about using a rubber bushing to help with the vibration, but instead just went with a thicker intake and changed to the 6061 aluminum.   Yes, the intake could be polished or powder coated and it should look good for a long time :D

I'm going to take some more parts of my quad and get them PCed black and the intake will be one of those parts.
Title: Re: LT500 Airbox replacement Intake
Post by: Quadster on September 30, 2012, 10:44:02 am
Ifs they are all 6061 billet aluminum, you could have them anodized, then dyed to whatever color you want. Plus they wont oxidize or need polishing every other ride.

nice intake but i dont have a zilla
if you were have problems with the intakes cracking, do you think adding so rubber bushings between the frame and the mounting tabs would help reduce the intensity of the vibration and increase the fatigue life of the aluminum?

UPDATE - 7/13/2014 SOLD OUT - TOO EXPENSIVE TO CONTINUE MAKING 
Hey guys, I sold some intakes over on the other site.  Those were v1 of the intake out of spun aluminum.  They were pretty nice, but we had a couple start to crack.  So we went back to the fabricator and went with a more expensive route - 6061 billet aluminum.  This v2 intake is quite a bit thicker then the v1 intake, so the weight doubled from the v1 to the v2.  v1 was 7.5oz and the v2 is 15.2oz. This added some cost to the intakes, but the result is a heavy duty intake.

Currently the v2 only comes in original aluminum, but you can polish or powder coated the intake as you want.

We are selling these on eBay for $175 for the kit and $125 for just the intake.  Not cheap, but this is a nice piece of hardware.

eBay Kit listing - http://www.ebay.com/itm/110954728725 (http://www.ebay.com/itm/110954728725)
eBay Intake listing - http://www.ebay.com/itm/110955608079 (http://www.ebay.com/itm/110955608079)

I'm going to sell these on this site for $150 for the kit and $100 for just the intake - Shipped.

The kit comes with a 4" x 6" Uni Dual Layer filter and the correct sized Outerwear.

FYI... A couple pictures above were taken before I cleaned up the weld areas on the intakes.

Send me a PM if you interested in purchasing.  Or post up any questions.  I'll get another picture up showing the intake installed.
