hey i was wondering what air filters you guys are running on your 86 tecates. i was thinking of going with one of these http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Honda-Kawasaki-Suzuki-Yamaha-NEW-Chrome-Air-Filter-39mm_W0QQcmdZViewItemQQcategoryZ35595QQihZ009QQite mZ190202675033QQrdZ1QQsspagenameZWDVW and clamping it straight to the carb because they are cheap, but i think it might be too small. what setup do you think is best for dune riding? anyone have any suggestions.

my tecate never came with an airbox it has some weird k&n that adapts to the stock aitbox boot and i was going to run a pre-filter on that on i was just worried about the size

I have seen people use the '88 newer kx 250/500 boots to angle the carb to the left... I am not sure how much clearance the frame allows though

yeah i have seen them also, but i dont like the look of the filter sticking out the side. i would rather just get one that will fit on the back of the carb and clear the shock, this is why i was looking at the little k&n style one but im afraid it might be too small and not allow enough air flow.
