What other kind of filter were you planning on using? The one that comes with the ESR eliminator kit has a slight bend it it, which positions the rear of the filter away from the shock, but then it angles back in towards center of the subframe so that it's not sticking out and getting in the way. I unfortuneately don't have any pics, but hopefully I explained it well enough.

well im going to be riding moto cross with it, and i really dont trust k&ns since they are just a 2 ply filter, but on my ltr i have a fuel atv intake and they use a special kind of filter, that gives more filtration, and more air flow because of the inverted end cap and the added size of the filter. i run no air box on the ltr and ride in very dirty conditions and never have any problem with it, i also use a outerwear on it. and also atleast on the ltr, no other filters showed significant power gains over stock, but the fuel atv intake gave an extra 3 hp

my new idea for it possibly is to just keep the stock intake tube and where the airbox mounts to the frame, and then just cut up the rest of the air box and put on the biggest filter i can fit and keep practical. really the main reason i want to do this is so i can run a centermount pipe

I've been thinking about a similar setup for use with the centermount pipes. I was wondering if the james lucky and ebay type airbox eliminators would work with the centermount. They are basically an aluminum copy of the front portion of the OEM airbox. They still use the OEM air boot and the OEM size filter. I think the filter would be in the way of the centermount muffler unless you move the whole thing to the side or had a filter that pointed outward a bit.

yeah im going to get a very long filter too for the most airflow, do you think it would be worth going to a different intake boot or is stock going to be good enough? if this works as well as i think it will it should be a lot better air flow than the esr set up

ESR claims that the stock intake boot is too restrictive, it does get real small where it goes under the frame near the shock. You might be able to use a LT500 boot for better flow, but I'm told that it is longer.

I personally think that airflow in the esr set-up is more than adequate since I run a 210 main jet on my 38 a/s on my 350 and I ride at sea level (literally).

well im really doing it for the extra filtration, because these filters do a lot better than your standard K&N

What do you have your muffler mounted to? I don't see any brackets or bolts? Is it upside down? Looks like a real tight fit with that no-link.

Maybe you could take the part number of the K&N esr filter and cross reference it to your filter brand or a similar one.

That's definitely a center mount pipe. Is it the spark arrested version? I'd like one of those... You're not a kidding on the tight fit either. I have the same setup and everything barely clears. Although, I do get a little bit of rubbing on the silencer from the shock, nothing serious though.

Yup, I have it upside down since it is super tight and I have unavoidable rub marks on the silencer. I can only imagine how a centermount can be made to work on a CR500 link rear

The spark arrested version will NOT work without rubbing on the frame CONSTANTLY. I had to grind down part of the shock ring adjuster so it wont hit :angry:

Since the cr500 shock is offset more to the right side, it obviously gives you more options for custom air intake set-ups, but I would definitely say HELL NO :lol: on ANY centermount pipe UNLESS you will modify this too :blink:
