Differences between air filter covers
« on: February 13, 2013, 12:08:31 PM »
Hi Guys,
My R65 made in April 1982 has a filter cover P/N 13 72 1 337 228.
In April 1983, BMW made a lot of modification in the air intake and carb settings.
This involves new springs in the carbs, new jetting, and new needle clip.
As far as I know, the needle is the same, only the locking system has changed.
I would like to know what are the differences between the covers.
So may one of you with a bike using the cover P/N 13 72 1 337 675 measure the trumpets and give me the values ? (I need small intake diameter, large dimensions at the air box and length for each trumpet in order for me to compare with mine).
Many thanks in advance for your help.
P.S. I'm too broke to buy a new one just to try...
