Removing the back fire screen

It’s not a world of a difference. But it does let the air flow a little more freely. Could help inprove throttle response.

Said to improve air flow, saves a little weight too.

I used an RM250 cage in my RMZ450 (identical cage just without the screen)
Didn't notice much difference, but no harm in giving it a go.

Yea I have 2016 rmz250 figured any little help with power would be a bonus

I bought a No Toil basket with no screen and use the NON flammable filter oil and filter. I was worried about starting a fire in case of a backfire.

I had a 2012 RMZ450 I did this too, and it did improve throttle response a tiny bit, if you aren’t worried about backfires or riding in state parks, you might as well do it because it is free

It will give you a tiny bit more throttle response, and as an added bonus you can stay warm this winter!
