92 ZZR Airbox Issue

Postby RyBoy » Tue Aug 16, 2011 2:29 pm

Hi All!
When I have been doing my checks on my bike the last couple of times I have noticed that the Air Box has popped off the carbs on my bike.
I got the box connected again, it was hard work, and took ages,
But I looked at it over the weekend, and it had come off again!
Has any one else had this issue? and is there a trick to getting it back on?
Thanks allot
Ry

ahhh ye olde airbox of doom strikes again :)

for some reason those zzr 250 has a horrible evil nasty way of attaching the airbox to the carbs ... and if u wanna remove the damn thing in 1 piece ya have to remove the rear subframe! :shock: most ppl reach for the grinder/hacksaw etc before that :)

u might find that a set of new airbox rubbers will work better.. is it popping off at the airbox end or the carb end?

It's Popping off the Airbox end!
I'm thinking that the new rubbers would be a goer,
I've also looked into replacing the airbox with pod filters, but that will involve putting some new jets into the carbs, and Bugger that!
Thanks for the reply Jim!
