Took the bike for a spin a there is a noticeable difference to grunt / acceleration. So thumbs up for that DNA air filter and cover.
I will look into a solution so the water does not run into it. Probably cut milk bottle & tape type.
Also fitted a raft of parts I had purchased and not yet bothered unpacking.
Including:
Genuine bar ends (bike didn't come with them)
Side covers from S2 Concept - they look good and finish the bike.
Gauge relocation bracket from S2 Concept - puts the gauges higher & forward so less looking down.
Rear Puig pegs in black
Wind reflector from Hurricane - like the Yamaha one but in black
Passenger grab rail from Hurricane - nice fit and although ugly, less ugly than other brands.

In some ways maybe, but in other bikes, the snorkel faces downwards towards the front wheel, so not sure if that's it's main purpose. I still wouldn't remove it though.
Someone might chip in, but wouldn't the design act as some soft of ramjet as opposed to sucking everything in?
There's always a debate about it, but with EFI bikes, I doubt removing it would make any difference apart from a raspier intake noise.
