Has anyone raised their mudguard yet on the 4RT. Want to mine for the Hurran on Sunday, but I am worried it will catch on the exhaust when the forks compress. Its never been a problem on my other bikes, but the 4rt pipe gets a lot hotter.

Also I take it you run a Jitsie air filter without the fire proof cage that you put the original in. As my new Jitsie filter does not fit in it.

Thanks

Dave

I have always run my 4RT with 10mm spacers on the mudguard with no problem at all. Bit concerned that you're not using the fire proof cage though as I know of someone who removed that part on the Sherco and melted the filter due a 'Spit Back' through the carb !!!!

fire proof cage ? not seen one of those on the sherco, nor has the parts book, could you explain what your talking about ?

my jitsie filter fits in the cage ok, are you sure they have sent

you a 4rt one ?

how do you raise the front mudguard then ?

as mine does sometimes start cloging up

Machine up some small ally spacers - Sherco was a problem when a Mikuni carb was fitted

Cheers for the replies, I will raise the mudguard before Sunday.

It's definately a 4rt filter as it has the holes in it for the bolts to go through, instead of the lip to attach the cage on. Cheers anyway, I will probably just run it with the standard one.
