Driggs Posted August 13, 2009 Report Share Posted August 13, 2009 I'm switching the Toomey 2:1 intake so I'll be doing away with my stock air box. What do I do with the reservoir? I've thought about cutting the back side off the air box so I'd be able to bolt it and hang the reservoir off the back like it does now. Any suggestions?

DallasGDub Posted August 13, 2009 Report Share Posted August 13, 2009 Some get rid of it all together. I just cut the back off the box and used the mounts only. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fullthrottle02 Posted August 13, 2009 Report Share Posted August 13, 2009 I got rid of mine altogether, then ran the line from the radiator that went to the overflow down the frame. This way while riding I could look down and see if she was dripping coolant and getting hot. You can see by the picture below. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toomey Banshee Posted August 13, 2009 Report Share Posted August 13, 2009 I did what you want to do on our 99. Just hack the front off and use the rear. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FrankieSquid Posted August 13, 2009 Report Share Posted August 13, 2009 When i removed my airfilter box i had took it all out leaving a side to where the resivoir mounts to. But i wen ahead and took the resivior tank out too. It will give you a much cleaner look on ur bike. The hose that goes to the resivoir from the radiator, cut that sucker off and run it straight down from the radiator so you can see if its over heating it will spew collant through there, its much better to see if shes getting hot. And the other hose to the resivoir is just a breather hose, toss that sucker out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spurdy Posted August 14, 2009 Report Share Posted August 14, 2009 On a bike I used to have i mounted mine behind the front bumper on the frame. You can remove it all together or cut the portion of the airbox used to mount it too, or remount it somewhere else. SP Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kubis21 Posted August 14, 2009 Report Share Posted August 14, 2009 You can buy an aliminum plate that bolts to the frame and the reservoir mounts to that. They are pretty cheap and you can get them most places that sell accesories. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
