WFO,yea, I probably should have bought a TTR,but then it would be just like everybdy elses TTR.Anyway, theres no turning back now.Your idea about the airbox plate sounds like it might work.I'm thinling that maybe there is an airboot off of another bike loike the TTR or CR80 that would work.The problem w/ the KX's airboot is that it points downward and when you bend it up to meet the carb ,it is severely kinked.I'll give John Cartwright a call also.
This little bike should be really neat once it's finished.I'll use it to ride w/ my 6yr old on his KTM50.My WR400 is just no fun to ride slow.
