Morning all,
Could someone please tell me how to locate and change the air filter as I want to fit a K&N one?
Also, this may sound stupid but when i bought my Bongo she had two batteries fitted, are they supposed to have two and do people remove one to fit a leisure battery. I'm probably being a bit thick here but "confused I am"? :-k

Welcome, changing the Air Filter is described here in this thread.

As regards the two batteries it sounds like you have a Winter Pack Bongo, used in the North of Japan, not needed in the UK until the next Ice Age probably due next year :shock: Have a search for Winter Pack and you will see that its advisable to remove the mechanical parts as they can cause grief! The battery can be converted to be used as a leisure battery as well, best to use the Willington kit, but plenty to read in all the threads.

Yup we almost always spell his name wrong, here is his Ebay advert thats for the whole lot, but I understand that he does just the electrical bits as well if you don't need the tray and mounting hardware - just contact him via Ebay and he normally puts up a kit as required.
