I taked to a guy with a RT1000 he said that he has an air intake tube with a KN filter kit inside. The tube fit in the side so you can not suck in any belt dust anybody hear of this before and where can I get one.

I put timbersled air filter kit on my rt1000 and the "kickass" filters have pre-filter screens on them, so the clutch dust can't get into the filters....... Check out www.timberlsed.com
we have now got the outside air box delete for the RT1000 it gets rid of the air box on the side panel but still uses the main chamber on the carbs ::: Welcome to Specialty Sleds :::
Thanks Eric

The one that specialty used to have eliminated the stock airbox on the sside panel and they had a plastic peice made up the sttached to the side panel that fit just around the original intake screen.. then there was a hose that ran from that over to the stock airbox on throttle bodies.. Very slick set-up.. Sold lots of them but i dont know if they still have any in stock or not.

Just picked one up this morning Ken had some hose left. Looks like a pretty easy install.

Oh yah it is easy and works real slick.. Also lose all that weight off of the side panel.. and the motor breathes in fresh cold air from outside..

if you dont want to spend the cash to get these products then I suggest what I did....
buy 2 uni filters you can get them for around $35 shipped to canada....
then you take out your inner air box....take it apart and then gut it....then put the unifilters on the plastic piece then on the throttle bodies and then put the air box back on...
here are some pics..
inner air box seam you need to take apart
the part you need to take out of the air box
heat the seam a bit with a hair dryer or have it at room temp...then use a bent screw driver to help get it apart...be patient...

remove the rubber donuts and then install the uni filters...use the brp clamps not the ones that came with the uni filters....the brp ones are alot thinner...
size comparison
make sure you off set the clamps before installing...
use a bit of sicone spray or wd40 just to lube the boots to help for the install
then install your box and your good to go....now installing the box is a bit tricky....what you do is take a flat tool like a thin file or something....has to be long and then squish down the 2 filters and then install the box over top...it is tricky so just take your time....but it can be done...
and make sure you gut the out air box as well...no need for all that extra junk...

Just ordered some uni-filters from Recreation Supply in Saskatoon, $17.00 apiece. After seen the crap that gets into the reeds, decided there had to be some kind of filtration. If anyone has pics of the Specialty Sleds intake tube could you post them, sounds like a good idea too.
