Many years ago, i saw an arrticle about a crazy cycle driver in Los Angeles. Lunatic decided to drive away from a police officer and ran away riding an FJ1200 which was at the time one of the fastest bikes. Guy was running 120mph right through red lights, barely clearing an accident with a...

This does void the warranty doesn't it? Don

Thanks and cleaning and oiling them is a pain. Don

Am I correct in the opinion that oiled fabric air filters show very little gain on a chassis dyno and very little in real world driiving? Don

Funny! Don

Yep, I've pulled everything that is removeable out of the trunk to check things out. Dry as a bone. The charcoal is helping a bit but not as much as I hoped for. Don

Thanks for the input. I just put a charcoal bag in the trunk, will see how that goes. If it isn't a significant improvement, I'll try your option. Don

Hard to describe the smell but it's only in the trunk. I have some charcoal bags coming this evening. I'm hopefull that they will attack the smell. Don

I have some charcol bags coming from Amazon. Half the price of "name" brands. Don

Yeah, I've seen the threads. The internet just brings out all the negativity that exists. Case in point, I'm retired US Navy, a designated proven weapons specialist. I once called S&Wesson to compliment them on a gun I recently bought. The customer service woman said "You mean you just...

Where do you get this from? Who said the engines are prone to grenading? What, foot to the floor and missed manual transmission shifts? Don

I think I've exhausted my options for getting a pleasant smelling trunk or at least a neutral scent. It's certainly a good bit better than before though. Don

I've done that and have used some Windex which is showing promise in reducing the smell. Going to let it air out until this evening. Pretty sure I'll have a worthwhile improvement. Don

Have done that and will look some more tomorrow. Don

My CTV-4 Blackwing is 14 mo old, just turned 7000 miles. Bought it at 14 miles, very clean. Well prepped. From the beginning, the trunk has had a strange scent, nothing even remotely stinky has been carried in it. I've washed the heavy rubber floor liner with soap, hasn't helped. Anyone else...

Flame me if you want but that's really unethical. And a good dealership technician is likely to know what you did to it. And THAT would be really embarassing. Don

Second trip into San Antonio, got slightly lower mileage due to a good bit more traffic on the uphill section. 28.9 combined. Don

Despite considerably more traffic, I got 27mpg on the return trip. Don

We live about 16 miles from San Antonio. Drove down and into the city for about 3 miles. It's downhill most of the way and the 4BW is totally stock. I got 33.6 mpg according to the instrument panel readout. Would need more than one similar trip and calculated through fillups but regardless...

Thanks for pointing out the additional reference and I agree with you, side to side doesn't seem to provide any benefits. Thanks much. Don
