Airbox nipple question?

[rashad]

I recently put on a different airbox( redid the small box mod) and when I did I noticed that the large nipple (towards the front of the bike) had no cap or anything on it..

Is this some sort of vent? Or will this hurt the pressure and cause driveability problems? I know there is no pair on my bike and It has no flapper anymore.

Could that be where the hose to the P.A.I.R. Valve would go? There be no need for it if your bike has block-off plates.

ya, if i remember correctly, that is the feed hose for the pair valve. just cap it off man. grip it and rip it!

nipple?? did someone say nipple??

for the guys that have done the pair mod... will it throw a code on the dash if I yank this thing off?

Nope....

if someone has a pair in good shape with low miles (clean) I would luv to take it off your hands if you're getting rid of it. Just let me know.

Its actually not that one... Its toward the front of the air box... By itself.

Drain for water. It normally has a cap with a small slit to the the water drain.

Will it hurt to leave it uncapped?

Nope, it is designed to be there so your airbox doesn't fill up with condensation / water.

the airbox drain is the clear bubble that looks like the bleeder on your weed eater. that hose is on the right side(when sitting on the bike) of the airbox, and should go down to the pair valve.

Ok so for sure its ok for the front most nipple to be unplugged
