That's the difference between an airbox (no lid, just the box and a proper high flow filter lock wired on) and open carbs. The loss of power between 10 and 11 probably more than canceling out the gain further up.

To be honest I though that it felt best with the lid (with and a couple of holes in) on, a thought confirmed when I rode my '28 racebike back in that format before I sold it the other day.
In fact it was that good I'm going to put a wanted for an '18 airbox in the classifieds in a min.

On the other hand, the fact the box isn't there (and in the way) might encourage you to jet the bike correctly, thus getting the power back where it should be Wink
