Why improve the original part?

The R nineT's stock airbox occupies a large area in the center of the frame, creating a massive visual block and a more tortuous intake path. For an aesthetic project and a more direct mechanical sensation, many preparers wish to reduce this volume to gain in visual consistency and in simplicity of admission.

• Bulky and unattractive central volume for uncluttered preparation

• Multiple air path with imposing parts and ducts

• Difficult integration into certain café racer/scrambler projects

This air box removal kit solves these points by freeing up space under the tank, simplifying the air path and offering clean integration depending on your type of gas control (electronic or cable). You get a motorcycle that's more stylish, cohesive and ready to reveal its character.

Ideal use:

• Preparations cafe racer looking for a clean line

• Projects scrambler aiming for a minimalist and functional aesthetic

• Riders wishing a lightweight motorcycle center and a clear undertank compartment

• Personalization enthusiasts looking for a more direct admission

• Owners of R nineT, Pure or Scrambler, all vintages
