I would like to put some air scoops on my 400ex and maybe some aftermarket ones on my 450r. Please post some pics of different brands of air scoops any color, chrome, powder coat, etc. Thanx.

Do scoops really make a noticable differance in helping the engine stay a little cooler?

Thanks. Its a Maier 250R Scooped Racing Hood. Ordered it from Maier direct for $50 + shipping.
Tinner, 2 years with the air scoops on and still no problems.

they dont make a big differance. they are mostly for looks. on a 400ex you would be lucky if it kept temps down 5 degrees. the only real time that air scoops help is if you have a radiator with scoops on or near it.
my 400ex has scoops and my friends doesnt and my 400ex actuly runs alot hotter than his.

I was thinking of doing something like that. I just haven't decided on exactly what I want in there. Bomb squad has a sticker sheet I might get and throw two smaller ones in the gap. I'm waiting on them to reply to an email about the sizes on the sheet.

Maybe its because you don't know how to tune your bike, and its running lean....
Also, those rims look horrid. The "colored ring" that everyone else has isn't for looks, it serves a purpose...its called a beadlock

Go ahead and keep thinking that you cocky *******.
Also....take a stopwatch, and time how long it takes you to post one particular post. I just don't see how your grammar can be so bad!
