Author Message   Advoutlander Posted on Wednesday, November 13, 2013 - 01:01 am:        Will the desert camo plastics fit an 08 intake?   Froggy Posted on Wednesday, November 13, 2013 - 01:05 am:        Yes   Advoutlander Posted on Wednesday, November 13, 2013 - 02:33 pm:        Wasn't there certain intake covers that were not compatible with 08 and up?   Froggy Posted on Wednesday, November 13, 2013 - 02:38 pm:        Yes, and it is the covers that do not have the air intake by the gas cap. The covers on the 03-05 XB and the 08+ 1125 models do not have the opening for the air intake, but if you wanted to use those covers anyway it doesn't take much effort to remove the plastic piece. All the covers from all 06 and newer XB models have the air intake opening.   Froggy Posted on Wednesday, November 13, 2013 - 02:42 pm:        Here are two covers, one is an 06+ XB with the air intake opening, the other is the style without the opening.   Uly_man Posted on Friday, November 15, 2013 - 12:24 pm:        Hold my hand and "give me info".   Schwara Posted on Friday, November 15, 2013 - 12:47 pm:        I've seen people change out the piece and I've also seen others just drill out the older style.   Etennuly Posted on Friday, November 15, 2013 - 02:11 pm:        The earlier XBs had a left side scoop for the air intake that had a tube up through the left side of the gas tank spar for it's air box inlet. They removed the left side air intake scoop, welded plates over the tank's holes, and moved the air inlet above the gas cap allowing for more fuel in the tank.   Kag Posted on Friday, November 15, 2013 - 11:27 pm:        Lots of good info....always learning something on here   Advoutlander Posted on Saturday, November 16, 2013 - 11:32 pm:        much appreciate the info.
