Default C50 airbox fits M50?

Does anyone know if C50 airbox will fit M50? I know it does sound odd, but in Finland you can get K&N filter only for C50 at the moment. I have a dyno time in a couple of weeks and really need to do something on the intake side before that. I might be able to get C50 airbox in a few days if it just fits.

I have tried to order a hypercharger from US but obviously all the fitting adapters are currently sold out...

It fits, but make sure you also get the mounting bracket for the C50 airbox , the M50 mounting bracket wont work. Here is a pic of my bike with a C50 airbox installed

There are C5o owners out there that want the M50 airbox and will probably trade even.

Also, Iceman, yout should stripe your front fender as well. Once I did it really completed the look. The front fender compound curve does make it harder to do than the rest of the bike but just take your time and use a hair dryer if you do.

Iceman,
Nice bike!! I like the C50 airbox on urs so I just ordered a C50 cover on eBay. Where do you think I can find the bracket? Also, the same seller had an airhose so will I need to order the airhose intake or will the M airhose work?

Sidenote, I have installed the integrated tail light on mine. I really want to cut off the stuff below the tail light. Have you made any posts on how you did yours? I am thinking I want to put some small sleek chrome LED turn signals that I would attach right to the side of the fender. What you think?

I tried to do the front fender and must have wasted a good 6 ft of stripe doing it. Just could not get the creases and bubbles out, so I just gave up.

I'm sportin' a stripe too, and I actually prefer the look without it. Nice looking machine Iceman
