Improved V85 TT E5+ 2024 Airbox on an E5 Model

Moto Guzzi Fixed the Design Flaw!
In my 2023 video • Moto Guzzi V85 TT Airb... I described how dirt could migrate past the filter. The airbox cover of the new 2024 E5+ models has indeed been improved, but unfortunately it does not fit into the previous E4 and E5 models. The shape of the back is more protruding - the bevel is not there. You have to replace more parts, but the costs are manageable.
You need:
1. Battery box (lower shell) 2B011780

2. Battery holder (base plate): 2B011781

3x AP8150509 self-tapping screws 5x14 mm

3. Filter holder (airbox cover) 2B011834

+ A thin foam rubber strip (DIY store) for the battery base plate, the Guzzi part (AP8117200) is far too expensive.
Optionally you could fit the following:
- 2 new intake snorkels (intake hose 2B011835)

- Additional holder/securing device for the ECU:
Holder 2B011814 + 2x AP8150509 self-tapping screws + rubber spacer AP8220186

The new airbox cover with its new intake snorkels seems to provide a better airflow too.
Where to buy original V85 parts? These are two good options:
Europe:

US:

I would like to thank the following companies for their support:
DÄS Mototec for spontaneously testing whether the new cover would fit the E4 and E5 models.
shop.daes-mototec.com
WENDEL Motorräder for their help in collecting the right parts even before the spare parts lists for the 2024 models were available.

intersting comparison, however, not sure if it is worth it

It is. ;-)
