I have a vmax 600 twin (94-96, kind of a bastard) and when we were pressure testing it it leaked like hell around the boost bottle. So we plugged the holes with a couple of pieces of aluminum, and left it like that. We really didn't see any purpose in having a crossover between the carbs, it would really just mask any carb problems that we would normally see clearly on one cylinder.
Has anyone else deleted their boost bottle? If so, what were the results? How did it affect carb tuning?
I haven't gotten enough miles on mine to make any real judgement, and didn't have any miles on it at all before rebuilding it (bought it blowed up).
I've read a lot of threads on them and some say they're great, some say they suck, but most are talking about the triples. Nobody seems to mention removing them from a twin.
