> ..."Dinan-style" air boxes and "Euro-M3" airbox or equivalent
Others on this list have commented that the Dinan airbox is
the Euro M3 airbox with the roundel rubbed off. Yet Dinan
charges $350 while the stock part is supposed to be ~$200.
I've got the Dinan airbox because i didn't know any better;
however, Mike at Dinan said that its more than just rubbing
off the roundel. They may have removed an internal component
(a propeller?) or baffling- Mike at Dinan said their early
iterations resonated badly. So you can chalk up their added
$ to their R&D.
In any event, the Dinan airbox is CA smog-legal- all of Dinan's
products are CA smog-legal.
