I've looked at the stickies and researched on the web but I'm totally confused.

I'd like to remove the snorkel from my Tenere and replace the air filters with stage 1 and 2 can anybody explain to a newbie how to do that?

Thanks in advance!

the snorkel pulls out from the top..mine was hard so after I removed the air filter(on my R) I used a hairdryer to warm the rubber.

RE stage 1 +2 the filters are different on the R and X the Z uses these..

There's four links which appear seperate when Im typing them BUT dont appear that way in the post.

Cheers for the tip re warming the rubber. So the round filter is just a straight replacement for the original item? I just remove the snorkel altogether then the wee plastic cap with the hole is stage 2?

I'm sorry I'm really struggling to understand what's what!

Have you looked at all 4 links??..
Stage 1 is the main filter
Stage 2 is the side filter..replaces the side of the airbox itself.

Sorry I must appear like a total tool. Stage 2 is the wee round bit and it's also the side box?

Can I just remove the snorkel altogether and put a round filter in?

I don't know why I can't get my head round this!

Stage one is removing the original air filter with the DNA and its adapter.

Stage 2 is where you remove/replace the air box's side cover with a filter that fits in its place.

If you follow the last link i put up it will show you all the required bits.
