Filter oops.

I took a punt on a filter on ebay. It wasn't expensive, but I thought I would order one even though the listing was short of information.

And I've agreed to ride 700 miles with you. Use it over your ears to filter out the 4 days of pisstaking. Roysy x

My scooter doesn't have panels in the usual way, so such a solution isn't viable. Accommodating any sort of filter with my one-piece back-end is a big challenge. I am hoping to create some sort of air hose, not dissimilar to the sweet breathe, but it is really tight. I'm even considering an air box, not a million miles away from what was installed on the frame-breather.

As you can tell from my purchase, I haven't thought this all the way through yet.

Yeah. Thanks for the suggestion. I was thinking of using my radio intercom system for the trip to Austria, but I think I might drop that idea. Riding the scooter might be the only break I get from your p!ss taking
