The only INTELLIGENT or sense that I can possiby find to that comment is that Tom's bike and his friend's 1951 and 1934 are just showroom, livingroom or hopefully museum pieces. Because I don't think a smart (intelligent) person would ride such relics without an air filter risking the complete engine and a 1951 and a 1934 restoration just because they prefer to ride without an air filter!!! It's just plain stupid!!! Unless I repeat, they are just sitting in a museum doing nothing!!!! and even there, I would have at least a paper filter!! and they need to be dusted!!! So, thanks a63buggy!!! because I was dying to read from somebody else to say something about such a stupid comment!!! The member Joepopp is looking for good advise here not comments or suggestions that undoubtly will ruin or cause damage to his engine!!! :think:
