SE back plate

Anyone smoothed out the back plate inlet. I think it would have much better flow. Mine is fairly rough being cast. I'm thinking a dremel or even emory cloth might do the trick. Let me know if you guys have tackled that.

Man... I didnt even think about that and I just lightly hit mine with some 400 grit paper and had it powered Gloss black as harley dont offer it in Gloss only wrinkle... Never even thought about hitting the inlet while I was at it... not sure if it would make a big enough difference to make more power but sure couldnt hurt either!

Thanks for the reply ICIBUY. Yea, probably couldn't tell any difference, but I might give it a shot. I hate to take it off again. I used the red thread lock.
