    Hello I decided to remove the airbox after installing hi flo filters,I haven’t tested the bike yet.

    I saw Truxtons with out the airbox in the web so I hope it works.

    Last picture show a Truxton with out airbox.

    Looks good, but you might need bigger filters as in the third pic. to flow enough air.

    The bike in pic three looks great, however, according to the text it's a design concept which would go a long way to explaining why it has no battery or ECU.

    looks great, with all those empty spaces are you going to experience a lot of wind noise? Let us know how you get on with the test ride

    That bike isn't a design concept, it has been up and running in Texas for about a year now. Here are some pictures....

    Hello finally I finished the airbox delete,the bike runs ok.

    We had to use a small battery and move several electric parts and ecu etc

    Also I changed the complete tail section.
