I would have thought that you will really need some sort of curved ram pipes even if they are only short ones. The airflow won't be as good aroundthe sharp corners into the carbs/TB's if you have nothing at all. This would lead to less power/torque.

Cheers

Can't speak for the zx12 specifically, but on my Zx10's if you remove the airbox they run like a complete bag of poo - ridiculously weak, won't rev out, popping banging etc. - quite incredible difference. You might get away with a very short ram tube, but would expect to need to rejet.





I no longer run Furore Products or Furore Cars Ltd, but would still highly recommend them for Acewell dashes, projector headlights, dominator headlights, indicators, mirrors etc, best prices in the UK! Take a look at http://www.furoreproducts.co.uk/ or find more parts on Ebay, user names furoreltd & furoreproducts, discounts available for LCB users.
Don't forget Stainless Steel Braided brake hoses, made to your exact requirements in any of around 16 colours. http://shop.ebay.co.uk/furoreproducts/m.html?_dmd=1&_ipg=50&_sop=12&_rdc=1
