Abstract
An air intake assembly includes a filter element and an intake conduit. The intake conduit includes a first end forming an inlet opening. The first end supports the filter element. The intake conduit also includes a second end forming an outlet opening and being adapted for attachment to an internal combustion engine. The intake conduit further includes a body defining a central axis extending between the first and second ends. A first lateral dimension of the body is taken transverse to the central axis, adjacent the inlet opening, within a plane that intersects both the inlet and outlet openings. A second lateral dimension of the body is taken transverse to the central axis, adjacent the outlet opening, within the plane. The first lateral dimension is less than the second lateral dimension.
