Can anyone tell me what size of filters I need to be looking for. Everything I see is 50mm or 48mm so I really dont know what to look for. My carbs are what came on the bike. Thanks guys Cafe racer Dad 80 CX 500C Lincoln NE    Report

I also tried cone filters, but after several years they were old and had to be replaced. When I found out how much new ones cost I bought a used filter box on Ebay and used it from then on. Those things cost a FORTUNE!    Report

"Bobing" a bike means lots of things to lots of people. Yes it is posible to bob yer' bike, and retain the stock airbox. If you like how it looks, that's all that counts. 81' CX500D 80' CX500C parts all over the place!!!!    Report
