remember the airbox acts as the last stop before the motor so if water goes down the snorkels it can pool up in the box a little before going in the motor.  I know people have done it with no problems.  It a matter of choice really

You can add a trap to the snorkle like in the drain for a sink.

I thought I wasn't going to be able to help because you asked for the smart people.

Won't that screw up your jetting by running a full open air filter?

opening up your airbox aint going to make that big difference in how much your gas lasts.

I think if you use silicone grease on the lids mating surface everything will be ok without all the hassle. Wink

Thats what I was gonna say. I just take marine grease and fill the little gap all the way around the lid of the airbox and you're good to go

Yeah. RTV and silicone can sometimes stick so strong it is a big pain in the azz to replace the aircleaner.

I guess if you used some cheap stuff from Home Depot it would work like Joe Dirt says....just avoid the 3M 5200!!

I'm probably going to hit Macks this weekend at some point.

Might be flooded with all the rain. Hit me up if you guys are going anywhere. I wouldn't mind getting in some Holeyland rides.

we tried it and it threw the jetting WAY off to have the airbox off.  He's got it all sealed up now professionally (or at least somewhat).

Got this straaaange ticking from the motor though Wink

It's all good, run it till it breaks
