The air inlet is under the bonnet, so I don't think the engine shield would help much.bigdaddycain wrote:I thought the primary reason for the cover was for protection from the odd flying object kicked up by the wheels, or as a shield from lots of water being deluged onto the hot engine from water when in wet conditions? Ya know you don't want any water making it's way into the air filter!

Re: ENGINE SHIELD
But the airbox is in the engine bay,i know its relatively shielded in there, but i wouldn't fancy pouring a bucket of water onto it whilst the engine is running.

Put the palm of your hand over the air intake under the bonnet while the engine is running and you'll see what I mean.
