sausage filter back plate advice req
Hi
How do you hold your sausage filter backplate onto your carbs?
I made my own backplate for the TTS filter but cant see how to secure it to the metal carb trumpets.
how has everyone else done it?

could you put it between the carbs and the trumpets? drilling holes in the backplate for the bolts to go through?

You take the rubber grommet things out of the original airbox and bond them into the back plate

I needed to buy an airbox off ebay (got it v cheap) for the rubbers that are used to attach airbox to the carbs.
Attaching it with the rubbers would be the easiest thing to do, if you have them/or can get them. But alternately you can drill the backplate and
screw it to your carbs using the screw threads already there.

If its for a 919 or 893 blade Steves approach works really well - use the rubbers out of the original box with their clips, it makes fitting and
removal much easier. If thats the case let me know - I have a set you can have

The R1 carbs have rubber trumpets that clip strait onto the carbs
then the airbox/ back plate has much larger holes with rubbers glued to them which clamp round the outside of the carb
I'll dig up some pics later if you want
just found this on ebay [NTDWM] - you can see the trumpets and I assume the other rubbers are still attached to the box, but best to check
its not too bad a price for the box, rubbers, clamps and trumpets if they are all included:
(infact that exactly what mine cost me, although I had to get all my bits seperatly - and its what I sold them for when I found out I was getting ZX9R
carbs not R1's)

R1 carbs are definatly easier to deal with than my late ZX9R carbs
