I think you would want to get carburetor jets also, with just the intake it may run lean and rough.

If you go with the cone type K&N filter, you will have to jet the carb. You can drill out your stock jet if you prefer: .046 if I remember correctly.

Jet size would be .046 - .048 and the K&N p/n is R1050 or R1080.

Hey Gary, did I finally remember these p/n's right this time??

Mario, you will notice a nice increase in power and speed!!!

thanks guys I am deff going to look into it....how much do you think the cone style filter would be? or how much would the whole setup cost?

You can get the jets here.

The filter I used was straight shape and I believe it was around $40.

Check here for jets if you don't want to drill yours.

For that price, I would purchase it just in case you ever want to go back to stock.

Aren't those jets for a 301cc, Ron? The G8 is a 285, right? You're probably right 'cause I don't know jack about Yamahas.

To be safe, I would just talk to Tom @ CPP. I'm sure he has the right jet
for the G8.
