Hi guys,

Not posted for a while. Last time I was here I had a stroker (TZR125RR Belgarda)

Now I have a Akira Yanagawa rep.

The tank hoses 'force' air into the airbox.

Laughing

I think he was going for the same rep mate, just didnt put the stickers on. (Still looks V nice though)

They do on the 7 and the 9 on the 4 they are just for decoration.

Didn't even think they did it on the 7 and 9's i thought they were directed to the top of the engine to assist cooling or something stupid like that?

If i remember rightly the 'hoover' tubes would make the air too turbulant to be worthwhile?

I'm not sure for certain but that is what I have been told.

I had an original ZXR750 H1 and on that all they did was direct air onto the cylinder head. No link to the airbox at all. Pretty sure it's the same deal with the 400s.

Pretty little ninja that, I love zxr400's had one for 4 years.

The hoover tubes direct cool air to the top of the airbox intake rather than sucking warm air from around the engine.
