I used a piece of "air snorkel" hose that came with the carter to extend under the cross bar. -- I think it wasn't anything more than hose from a vacuum cleaner or pool filter. Fit really nice and snug around the carb and the filter adapter. I think i've read somewhere that 6 to 8 inches is the max length for extending the air filter from the carb. Anyone have insight on this? I'd actually like to be able to get the filter up around or above the rack just to keep it out of the mud zone.
