I was curious what you had for metal stacks. I like your idea. I agree with you that intake stacks would help smooth out the airflow into the carbs. The stock plastic intakes are about 9 bucks each so it's possible to pick up a couple for experimenting with, and still be able to return to stock. I would sacrifice a little performance for "the look" as long as I could get it to run well. Got the Aprilia for performance fun. Really like the RXV550 by the way. thanks again

I have been all over the K&N website. Was considering the filters with the longer flange. Not as long as the intake stacks though. I like the idea of just leaving it stock, but like the looks of the K&N's, like the filter chargers too. Bike is ridden regularly for fun on good days, so doesn't see rain. A set of metal intake stacks would be nice. Looked at stacks on several sights but most are flared bell style. thanks again GuzziMoto

Thanks everyone for the information. Obvious there is good and bad with the K&N's. Must be Moto Guzzi yin and yang!

Thanks for the reply. Really like the looks so it's a cosmetic thing. K&N has the best selection so that's why I considered them. Have heard that the stock air box is the way to go. just looking for the opinion of others who have more experience and insight. thanks again

Got a 96 sport 1100 with carbs. Would like to eliminate the air box and go with individual filters. Good idea, or bad? Suggestions? Anyone with a part number or size that works? Thanks in advance
