    Hey all,
    Bought a used bike and it was missing the airbox. Reading online that the carbs will run rough unless tuned up if I slap on some pod air filters so I'm wondering if anyone out there has an old airbox.

    Thanks in advance!

    Seca or Maxim? I don’t have either but potential sellers will need to know.

    I already wrote this in Dave's thread, but in order to keep it clean I'll post it here too.

    I have a 550 Maxim Airbox that I'm looking to sell, do you know if they're the same?

    I think the only differance between a seca and maxim 550 air box is the mounting brackets for the maxim sidecovers
