Hi, thanks for the kind comments. No video explaining about that trips preparation but I am off to Africa next month so maybe I'll post one then. MotoFreight in Feltham shipped for me, very good. Costs around £1500 one way so not cheap. Taking your own bike has pros and cons, I like the satisfaction of preparing and riding my own, it would be cheaper to rent, but you never know what you''ll get. Borders are challenging but fun, there is one, No 42, that demonstrated border from Peru to Ecuador...it made me smile

100% for me. Nothing negative at all. I also fitted the CBR300 air intake rubber (see video). Also added 2 extra foam pre filters but still use the stock paper filter as a final. Doesn't make it a KTM350 but it goes better and rides well. A decent upgrade. I'd do it again

The crash bars are soft, but I'd still fit...its a relatively easy job. I've dropped the bike quite a few times over the last year (mostly slow) and they do fold up quite easily...but by the same token, they're easy to bend back - a piece of rope around a tree/post and you simply pull it back using the weight of the bike and a little leverage. My bracing appears to have worked but admittely it is a faff to get on and you need someone to weld for you...but they look good :)

I just did this modification tonight. Man that was a miserable experience. I had to put a lot of downward pressure on the throttle body and at the same time push up and forward on the air box then I had to put a bolt in the airbox mounting hole to keep the airbox in place while I push the CBR air boot onto the throttle body. Man what a pain in the ass! It took me an hour of pushing, turning, contorting, resting, grabbing a beer and trying again and again to get everything lined up. I finally got it, but man it would go so much smoother with someone putting the bolt in while you push the airbox and the throttle body. I only have two hands but you need three. While you have the bike tore apart you should block-off the pair valve, remove the evap canister/Air Injection solenoid and the Evap purge control valve. I weighed all that and it was 2 lbs of environmental garbage that is not necessary. I blocked off the pair valve with the 550 performance block-off plate. Installed the stage 1 ECU and the Yoshimura exhaust. I also removed the snorkel off the rear air box and installed the high flow reusable air filter by 550 performance. I definitely noticed a difference in my bike's top end speed and the acceleration from zero to 70 was faster. I'm not sure if all my effort and money was worth the small performance boost. It's not huge but you will notice better performance. With the RSC clutch lever, double-take mirrors, hand guards, crash guards, skid plate, Yoshimura full exhaust, Fancy decal kit, Yoshimura tail tidy, red anodized zeta foot pegs, Lithium Ion Antigravity battery, front and rear LED turn signals, tail luggage rack, race tek suspension, I have spent $4550 + bike $5400 = $9950. If I were to do it all over again I would have just bought the CRF500L and fixed cutting out issue with a tune. I did not enjoy that airbox modification.

... I am getting ready to do the CBR intake mod and I also am not looking forward to it. I thought it was this video where the gap that fits onto/into the air box was widened to give the boot more play/space to be tilted down to fit w/o so much tension? I have watched so many videos on this I can't remember. . I received the Yoshimura RS4 full exhaust, 550 Stage 1, (91 octane). The DNA air filter and service kit comes from Europe and was stuck in customs for a while. Still haven't received it. Supposed to be here this week. . "While you have the bike tore apart you should block-off the pair valve, remove the evap canister/Air Injection solenoid and the Evap purge control valve." That makes me nervous not fully understanding all of it. I know Jake the Garden Snake did a video on it. Does removing all that really make a difference? Yeah, I'm a little concerned doing all this. I hope all this $$ and time is worth it. . Jeff.

They are from a CRF1000 Africa Twin. I took out the stock snorkel, cut it in half, drilled a second hole in the airbox, and therefore had two inlets allowing me to place those filters on. I think its a gain...they clean easy and really protect the stock paper filters (which are cheap, have great air flow and are tight (fine) and worth keeping on). They come from Uniflow

The factory tune is very lean, choked up for EPA. The ECU richen's up the fuel table and makes a more efficient fuel burn. Just like you would tune a two-stroke, no difference here. 550 ECU makes your engine run more efficiently. Hence why my MPG went up and my engine temps went down. 👍
