Suppose one chose to install automotive air filter paper on stock CB450 air boxes and said material was more restrictive of air flow than the original filter medium. How might this manifest itself in the function of the stock CV carburetors? (You may assume Keihin 723A with aluminum vacuum pistons in this particular case.)
The obvious answer is that the bike would run rich, but I'm more curious to hear theories about how the reduced flow could affect the function of the vacuum pistons.
I ask because I have unwittingly conducted experiments of this nature and am trying to make sense of the preliminary findings.
