yes i realize the whole hydrolock situation but the f4i isn't like the 636. i put my f4i on the bar all the time without an oil inthe airbox incident. i don't see a point ot doing it on the f4i unless you like to leave your bike on it's side for long periods of time.

Re: kleen air on my 636-good idea!
the only side effect i have found with this mod is you have to take off your filler cap when draining your oil or it take forever ....
the read style valves in the clean air ports only open when the bike is running so it's like tipping a gallon jug of water over it chugs until you open the filler cap ....
i guess if you take off your filter and drain plug at the same time this wouldn't happen but my drain pan is only big enough to do one at a time

that's one thing that i'm not liking about my f4i, it dogs it when you gas when coming down from a wheelie. you sold me, i'm going to try it on the f4i as well.

I mean, it's no 636.. thats for sure. But it definitley doesn't do the bog.

Re: kleen air on my 636-good idea!
i did this mod because my bike was missing out on the first cylinder and i thought it may be bacause i got oil in the airbox. i cleaned the box out. bought new plugs. cranked it with out plugs and then put them back in and it is still running like ****. its blowing blue smoke out and exhaust smels somewhat like it has gas and oil in it?
if they all sizzle, you might have a jetting issue. could be clogged injector or something, if it's running rich then an injector might be going wild for whatever reason. the blue smoke would be from oil being burned...could be a stuck ring for that.
