DIY snorkel removal, AKA Poor Man stage 1 filter cover.

Hi:

I own a XT660Z since last saturday, it is time to start mods



Snorkel Out.

A visit to the local plumbing store ended with a rubber than fits either a WC or a XT660Z filter cap.



Placed on the filter cap.



And installed on the bike.



I will remove the cover in a few days in order to check that it works as expected, but it looks GREAT!!!.

Excuse my English, I'm spanish.

have fun,

j.
