    Skeptical, skeptical. I REALLY would get a guarantee from the vendor for a return in case it doesn't fit. I have tried some "other" parts that are ideal for Honda that "claim" to work on the VX and did not.

    Another little sumpin' to think about...

    Even with a heat shield, (which, if made of metal, will eventually attain pretty close to under-hood temps.) you're still sucking warm under-hood air into your intake...

    Heat soak also comes into play if the intake tube is made of metal...especially aluminium.

    So most are still running the stock intake because most of these are ineffective, especially off-road and wet weather? Maybe just run a K&N direct factory replacement?

    Or a GREEN panel filter from Tone...

    They're supposed to flow more & filter smaller particles than K&N...fyi...

    Check my gallery, I'm using a K&N cone, with pre-filter, inside the insulated stock airbox. The c/f intake is sleeved & insulated also...
