Velocity Stack - Rain?


  • Just about done with my performance kit install and I was thinking about washing my bike before I slap the tank back on when a question hit me. What's the deal with water getting into the stack?! It can't be a good thing and I'm seeing that there are pre-filters available to stick over the stack to keep water out.

    So what's the deal? How big of a deal is it if I ride in the rain without one or decide to wash my bike and get crazy with the hose? Should I look for a pre-filter and, if so, anyone recommend one for TJ's stack? Thanks.



  • @Rick Orris I put a plastic bag and rubber band over the stack if youre going to use a hose or pressure washer becauee you are directing water at the bike you can introduce way too much water intot he carb.  Riding in the rain is not an issue though. ivbe ridden thousands of miles in rain, never an issue on dual or single carb bikes. youre good.
