250EX airbox covers

[Quadster450]

anyone know any place to get an airbox cover like outwears for a honda 2006 250EX? if not any ideas on a custom one? I'd rather not run with it off unless i had some kind of cover...

Cut out the center, make screw holes, cut out a t-shirt, make a ring sort of thing the shape you cut out the hole in the cover (thin metal works good), put the shirt on and stretch it out, put on the ring thing over it, and screw it in and put a nut on the bottom of the swrews.:) works good. You just have to watch it when it gets wet so that it doesnt get clogged up.

sounds easy enough. thanks

Why dont you just go to the cloth store and buy some canvus material and spray it with water repeal that you can buy at any place that sells shoes. This would be a safer way to keep the dirt and water out.

cut hole in center use metal ring & bolts to hold down, but don't use t-shirt,that's getto, use a k&n outerwear

I have tried both and im saying this from experience. Also who is going to see under your seat to call your airbox lid ghetto?
