I have a question about air intake mods and the rain. I get caught in the rain from time to time and have been thinking about an air mod for 2 reasons:
1. easier to remove and clean
2. bike breathes better.
I have seen some of the mods with the filter uncovered and leading directly into the throttle body. I drive 80 miles to work one way and, again, I do get caught in the rain. Are there any worries the water may enter the throttle body and subsequently into the cylinders? Are there any mods that make cleaning and replacement easier than the OEM that will not allow the rain into the cylinders? I don't chase the rain, but sometimes the day starts out sunny only to end wet.:dontknow:
