you will have 3 pipe sticking up when done,one for the air box and the other 2 for the belt. the little hoses that are there are for the Gas tank vent Top of the carb vent and the Radiator over flow line.. you will also need to check the carb float bowl drain lines and make sure they are puged off or have a one way check vavle in them..


Which pipe out of the 3 is generally the air intake?  Im assuming its the left one.  I also thought it could be the center one so i wasnt sure, im hoping to get mine into the center because i plan on making the center a bit higher that the outside ones, for looks mainly, but it wouldnt hurt to have the highest one be the intake lol...


My 650v2 has 2 pipes leading from the airbox to the front intake... do i just snorkle the left pipe ? what do i do with the one on the right ?

Status: offline 		I just finished my V2 use the left one and use 2 45 and then I bought a 90 rubber piece to go straight down from my intake for my carbs then used a 90 then a short piece of 2" then another 90 an ran it straight up. Then for the exhaust side of the belt i used a 3-2" reducer 2" 90 then a long piece of 2" pipe then a 45 then another piece of 2" then a 90 staight up you will have to play around with it to get them all straight but theres not much to it.

My warrenty doesnt cover water in the engine, so i figured i would get a snorkel and make it kina like a little insurence policy.

And as long as the problem doesnt come from water or dirt in the engine, then he will still warrenty the engine. But from what i here, Cats stand up pretty freaking good to anything you through at it. So im no too worried about it breaking down too soon. Plus i bought it a month ago.

Ive got an H1 and i only did the air so far, but i guess it doesnt matter because i still cant get over my tires in the mud or the water. I only have 27's so it not very deep. When i get into it  it starts running like crap. I put the die-electric grese on all my connections but still having big problems. If anybody could help me you would by my hero. Thanks

Status: offline 		ok i might be repeatin some steps:
grease the spark plug........ plug the carb drain........check for water in the air box (just incase the snorkle leaked)..... otherwise they dont have many problems...... oh and silicone the bottom of the air box where the duckbills are cause they leak (also id do this to the belt exhaust (front bottom) there is a duckbill there as well if you need time before you finish snorkles and you want to ride)   ok so questions welcome.......
