al_roethlisberger Posted December 22, 2005 Share Posted December 22, 2005 I got a pair of prototype velocity stacks for my V11 from this guy.. guzzidave@hotmail.com they're AWESOME.. They weren't too expensive either, shoot him an email. Great guy, really nice and great feedback via email. Can't say enough good things. Here is a pic of my Guzzi with the stacks on her.. This is on our way to Mid-Ohio for the vintage races.. camping gear baby! TinyE 55737[/snapback] Yeah, I've asked for these for Christmas I'm ordering with both the UNI and K&N filters to see which works out better. My conversation with Dave Blunk said they don't know which flows/protects better, but went with the UNI initially simply because they were lighter. http://www.sportcyclepacific.com/featureditems.htm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
big J Posted December 22, 2005 Share Posted December 22, 2005 For gawds sake,dont fit K&N's,Ratchet'll be down beating you over the head with a Marzocchi fork spring. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
al_roethlisberger Posted December 22, 2005 Share Posted December 22, 2005 Heh, yeah... I've lurking on that thread ..and finally just posted a quickie But I've been running the K&Ns on bikes for years with no known ill-effects. If I do get the kit above, I plan to buy both the UNI and K&N filters that fit the stacks and just see which works out better. The kit comes with UNIs, but they'll send some K&Ns with it for another $50. al Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

al_roethlisberger Posted December 22, 2005 Share Posted December 22, 2005 Wow, now that is an excellent idea I'll get right on that, along with a device to provide carefully "measured" exposure to finely sorted particulates evenly to both cylinder intakes.

EASY!!!!!!! 71504[/snapback] But where do you get the velocity stacks from? Well, you also have to rig-up some sort of bracketry to support the side-panels if you've removed your airbox... which I did a while back: Pods versus Lidless I actually like the looks of the side panels, but go with or without at times depending on the mood Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeBenGuzzi Posted December 22, 2005 Share Posted December 22, 2005 I find it funny the damn things run better WITHOUT anything in the way of the TB's.... makes me wonder Hmmmm. just put a fluted Velocity stack on there and install a mesh screen baddabing youre done. Cause honestly I don't know how any craps gonna get in there and I don't think it will shave more than a few miles off the end of the life of the bike. I mean come on smoke up it only kills you in the end right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I haven't done the velocity stacks but I like the look of only stacks on some custom choppers and what not. But obviously they don't intend to ever ride them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
