If you have a seperate airbox then you dont get an engine cover (thats the airbox).

If its the same type as mine, the filter you need if you want the pipercross one is PP1574 Which is the one in your link

Also i removed the peice of plastic shown here with the red arrow

Hope this helps

what did u remove that for?

I removed it to try and let more ait into the filter, As with it in its only a small gap, But after i removed it i noticed how small the actual inlet is at the bottom of the airbox. Mine seems to be smoother accelerating without it. Or it maybe me thinking that because i have done a small cheap mod that it is actually working
