They dont like to stay on! lol I have tried various methods of keeping them on. However on my way to work yesterday my left pod filter came off and the truck behind me ran it over. I went back and got the filter and tried to fix it so i can get to work. This didnt work. I ended up having to hold my hand over the carb to get the bike to run. Had to ride that way for about 10-15 miles. After work I got the smashed filter opened a bit and reinstalled. At least good enough to get the bike home. Id like to see the different kind of filters that you all are using. I know that i got mine off of ebay but i think i may want to try a different kind.

Is it a straight forward procedure fitting the jets required for the new pod filters? Haven't pulled a carby apart before and was wondering if it's a touchy job, any links on fitting them
