    Here's one husky owner that's says the boost bottle works?

    I haven't tried a boost bottle so I'm not sure if it works or not. The jury is out.

    So thoughts on if the boost bottle works or not. The only thing different in the installation I can see is the length of the hose. Some installations don't use a hose. Does that effect the application of the boost bottle?

    Why don't you just build one and stop asking if they work over and over again?

    And no, the jury is NOT out on whether boost bottles work or not. They don't. Do you know how I know that? I was a local pro MX and A class enduro racer in the early to mid 80s and I bought all this snake oil junk thinking it would help, I bought every gimmick part you could buy and all I did was waste money I really needed to spend on gas and entry fees and maintenance parts. I bought the Roost Boost for my Honda and it did nothing but empty my wallet. Parts like the Roost Boost are a placebo, people convince themselves they work because they can't bring themselves to admit they wasted their money. The same exact thing is playing out right now with the Race Tech Emulators. The theory is good but in practice at best they are a marginal improvement over stock Husky forks and that is after you extensively modify them so they fit correctly and won't break. If you just throw them in without setting them up they are worse than stock but people can't admit that they spent $200 on a product that doesn't work.

    Try it for yourself. Like I said, it should take less than an hour to build one.

    IDK for sure. But as said in above posts boost bottles don't work. I was trying to look at the pros vs cons but I got more negatives.

    Is that your gas tank? Do you use the boost bottle?

    Is that tank for sale?
