I don't read where it says that. That sounds like they customized it with an 1125 throttle body. not the rr stock stuff.

actually, the airbox and tubes are strictly for ram air intake and sealed from the engine.

The XBRR style airbox cover is basically zero loss on an 1125R. Drag racer Mike lost 1HP on the dyno by taking it off on back to back dyno pulls.

This is on his drag bike (stock engine) run without a filter, and a modified 1125 base plate to get it sealed up for ram air down the track.

We have a few XBRR carbon fiber airbox covers in stock, but can order more if the interest is there.

A baseplate to make this a fabrication free process is on the list of drag racing "kits" to complete, but at the moment all hands are on deck working on the RS.

Hit me up on [email protected] for more detail.
 
either way, I'm not doubting it was ridiculously hot. with the 12.1 compression on mine now, it heats up fast.

ask him ;)

the RR airbox sealed around the velocity stacks on the black base here

The velocity stacks are mounted in a small airbox connected to the carbon hoses. The injectors are

located as near as possible to the intake valves.

just doesn't make any sense to me, i live in fort worth texas, where it does get pretty hot, i dont always ride in teh blistering heat, but sometimes i do.

to cover up the engine and headers, and then get stuck at a stoplight, or barely moving traffic............just, not something ill do to my bike.....but thats just me.

maybe the water cooled 1125 or course, but youre practically relying on maximum airflow as the only means to cool the engine.
 
You got me on that one, but it still said they adapted an 1125 tb on the one I quoted. the 1125 doesn't have the velocity stacks like the pic you put up.
 
right, what you and I quoted was the guy on here that used the XBRR ram air and a modded 1125 airbox base on his 1125R to make it ram air.
The whole point being that the RR airbox was for ram air.

and that' understandable. To me, once in a while form follows function :D
