Air box snorkel repair
Having a partially ripped air inlet snorkel that was 're-attached' by someones duct tape handy work, I decided to remove the tape and reattach the snorkel with a more permanent type of repair. I drilled four holes, wiped a bit gray silicone rubber between the inlet and the air box and pop-riveted it back in place.

NEVER SNEAK UP ON A SLEEPING DOG..NOT EVEN YOUR OWN.
I would rather trust my bike to a "QUACK" that KNOWS how to fix it rather than a book worm that THINKS HE KNOWS how to fix it.
