    I really don't understand how people can be so stupid. Kawasaki have had the best ram air systems for years and this guy thinks he can "fix" it.

    kid is probably the type that would try to patent something like this. If it were necessary/proper/safe I am sure it would already be on bikes. Not to say new things arent thought up daily,but i am sure there are a few people on kawi's team that would run the numbers on something like this before applying it.

    He's gonna need bigger holes in his frame. And while he's at it maybe he should cut some other holes to remove excess weight.

    Re: Ram Air Mod...

    I think of all those pics, the one in the OP is my favorite...numb nuts actually drilling holes in the frame.

    I Seriously thought of doing this mod but decided to just run to the mini-mart to get a can of NOS. 2 for $4...one for me and one for the bike. Plus I don't have to strip the bike.
