    Default airbox differences

    i have 2 airboxes and one is flat across the top and the other slopes down on the passenger side. will the flat one fit under the bonnet or only the sloped one?

    Yeah I have one of each as well and they both fit from memory. just try em both, Don't really think one would be better than the other.

    im guessing the slope is there to reflect air from building up in that corner, why dont you try and fit it to see if u wont have any probs after its all painted

    i just remembered the flat top ones are out of a VN. they clear the bonnet......JUST. It sits just above the guard but the rubber bonnet stops give it just enough clearance.
