Hello Ferguson,
No I didn’t remove the air box. I simply removed all the securing bolts and eased it back, flexing on the manifold pipes. The whole fit wasn’t a difficult job to do: just photograph where parts are before you remove them and mark the route of cables that are to be removed with string.
The most unexpected part of the job was the fact that the installation of the front suspension unit requires the suspension telelever to be unbolted from its pivot and moved forward, to accommodate the larger sized remote reservoir fitted to the Wilber’s unit. Not difficult just not anticipated.

Never need to undo the telelever with the TT units , only the air box as its easier to get all in position and its a simple job , but there are wires for the electronics tho. The TT unit was larger but still fitted and with the air box removed it made room for the fit , just an opinion tho as not measured the Wilburs against the TT units .
