No Toil airbox cover?

[Motogeek33]

I'm trying to come up with a better idea for an air filter in my WR450. I ran all of last year with an Outerwears pre-filter over my stock cage and foam, but I was thinking about eliminating the foam this year. But whether the foam is there or not, there's so much excess material in the pre-filter that has to be tucked between the cage and the airbox that it feels like it's not sealing very well.

So I've been thinking about using a No Toil airbox cover that's designed to fit in place of the stock cage and filter to completely seal up the opening to the carb for when you wash your bike. I was thinking about drilling a bunch of holes in the No Toil cover and then gluing the Outerwears pre-filter material over the top and cutting away the excess. It seems like it would make a really nice filter for snowbiking that would seal well.

Any thoughts or other ideas?

personally I think you will choke it off. Great idea with the air box cover to seal it. I am not sure how the intake on the WR is but on ktm those airboxes fill with snow. Best thing you can do is run pipe like the turbo kits run. I am going to now seal my air box with an air box cover cut a hole to run a pipe for a cold air filter. thanks!

Just cut the inside out of a cheap foam filter for your bike. Then you will have the outside ring to seal it up, but no foam in the middle. That's the redneck way I did it. It works good. lol

Here are my blueprints.
