Hi Andy,
The air filter you are after is the K&N filter with number: E-2859.
I have this filter on my own Tiger so there is no doubt about it.
Regards,
Peter Ruyter

Hi meadowhog, sorry that I did not check the link you provided first. It is indeed a splendid article! If you want to buy a kit why not contact Tom as I did and buy the kit from him? The costs are included P&P something like 6 or 7 GBP. The advantage of buying from Tom is also that he replaces in th...

This engineer published a brilliant article on the internet with the title "Repair/Upgrade for Sunbeam Alpine Electronic Tachometer". I have had contact with Tom by email and I bought ...

I forgot to mention that I have used in years the Fram 2874 too just like Tomasseli is doing, but....in that case I used a different adaptor. With that adaptor the oilfilter is not pointing down but sidewards therefore it is in this case not possible to use the bigger Fram oilfilter I am using now. ...

As a reserve I have a Fram oilfilter with the code PH 2881 and that filter has a diameter of 94mm which is aproximately 3 and 11/16 inch, while the length is 144 mm which is aproximately...

Regarding the two types of oil seals: it is possible to use both seals. Originally the seal was a rope seal and a sharp pin was centered in the seal groove in the rear main cap. This was done to prevent the roap seal from rotating. If you want to use a spit-lip-seal the pin has to come out and you h...

IIRC, a while back someone posted a link to a US site dedicted to SBF. If you have no joy here, it could be worth seeking it out. That's all the help I can be I'm afraid. Anyone know the site name?[/quote Hi Martin, Thanks for your reaction. For you it is clear what the accronymes IIRC and SBF mean...

To start with adjusting the fuel mixture on a fixted venturi carburetor only set's the mixture at idle, as soon as you move the throtle the mixture is down to jet size and air flow. The CO% on idle should be about 1.5% +/- .5%. If you have a four gas emission tester as used in all UK MOT stations, ...

I've fitted a wide band lamda sensor in the exhaust & have a full time air/fuel ratio meter in the dash. It gives continuos reading on mixture under real driving conditions.
