When removing an airbox and changing to pod filters, you can have multiple issues. Some bikes will idle poorly without the airbox and others will bog badly on acceleration. The carbs are jetted to work with the specific air flow volume the airbox provides. Adding in higher flowing pod filters may cause multiple issues until you rejet. I am not personally familiar with the Maximum line of bikes but learned this lesson with a Kawi Vulcan. With just the covers off of the filters, the bike would barely idle and would not accelerate cleanly. Once the covers were replaced it ran perfectly. Hope you get your bike sorted soon, good luck
