It takes the same filter but uses a different boot. Moto International
should still have the boots for CHEAP !
The popping in the exhaust is NOT a trait of the Amal carbs.

| I am working on a 74 Eldo I just picked up with Amal Carbs. When I let off the throttle and am gearing down it pops through the mufflers. I have played with the air screws and it has gotten better, but it is still there. I have checked the carb intake gaskets and they are fine. Someone told me this is a common problem with running amals on a Guzzi. Any ideas ? Also does anyone know of a standard air filter that will fit the stock ambo-eldo air box. I have heard one from a early VW bug will work, but no dice. It would not fit into the box. Personally I run separate K&N's on my bike, but I am just doing this one up for sale and would like to keep it stock.
