Put this in here rather than Gen 1 Tuono, as it also relates to the Mille.
Been looking at airbox mods and what is involved, and came across
this post on AF1's site by Scott2ride.


Has anyone gone down this diy route (post #18 above)?

Eventually found the thread, but all the pics are long gone.
Can anyone tell me the approx gap that needs making up between the lower airbox and the bottom of the tank please?
Is this gap fairly consistent all the way round (apart from the front, which appears to need some extra)?

That all sounds rather perverse.

I have the pics somewhere but wasn't the post on the old AP forum?

Make sure you have safe search turned on!

Just the other day, I was chatting to my mate on Skype about Guinness and stout in general.

There was a bottled stout, years ago -that doctors advised elderly ladies to drink...

We were umming and arrring and couldn't remember what it was called.


Then we google image searched "Old lady stout, bottle"

The resulting images -that I saw for a nano second, are permanently etched into my brain.

I see them every time I close my eyes and wake in cold sweats, crying out in the night Shocked Shocked

Not sure that I'll ever make a full recovery Ouch
Question everything.

Better to have something you don't need than need something you don't have....
