Hey Guys,


I started the teardown of the LT250S and looking at the mudflaps I guess they have dual duty in acting as air scoops for the engine.

How critical are these in the cooling of the engine. I was thinking of doing away with them, but if they are needed I suppose I could keep them on the machine.

 

Mudflaps to cool the engine? lol... I'm sure you can get along without them

 

Well they are more than just mudflaps. They form up along the frame to shape the Air scoops...kinda like a one in all, but you're probably right.

The way they have them mounted on the front fenders is really weird involving small plates of metal that really I can't see what they add.

 

You don't need em. It doesn't get that hot.
