I've started to pick up parts for modifying my MB200-2 (see my original thread here), and I've run into a problem pretty quickly.
I bought an air filter and aluminum adapter and when installed, it became clear that this style of filter will not work with this mini bike frame. Once installed, the filter is directly in the way of my right leg when using the rear foot pegs. This bike has 2 sets of footpegs: the front set puts you in a cruiser position, and the rear set puts you in an upright position. I use the rear set almost exclusively, so having the filter in the way is not an option. I took it back off and put the stock filter back on.
What I need is an adapter that will come off the carb and turn towards the rear of the bike, not out towards the side. I am only finding adapters like the one I bought and I am not having luck finding one that turns - it looks like I need about a 45 degree angle - something like my sketch that's attached.
Does anyone have a source for a filter adapter like this?
