Pod tuning video

[LAB3]

So you want to put pods on to increase airflow but how do you tune them? By restricting it! Seems like a rather roundabout way to do this when a couple of wraps of duct tape would probably do a better job. Still though, someone might get a good idea out of watching this.

I miss Ichiban. His videos are gold.

I need an oil pan (Begins to rummage through wife's baking pans)

Doesn't that defeat the purpose of pods?

I mean, before I got my carbs jetted (properly: on a dyno), I had to cover about 90% of the pods' surface with electrical tape. But that was only so I could ride it over to the tuner.

Why open up the intake just to turn around and restrict it again? Apparently, you guys are not spending enough time near red line.

you guys

Who guys? All I did was post a video, my bike uses the stock air intake.

That video is actually pretty good. What the tubes do is increase the length of the tube, decreasing the pressure, allowing the diaphragms to work. This is a problem with some CV carb bikes, the diaphragms don't rise enough. Bernoulli principle.
