K&N Air box delete...stuck?

Just a wee ps for you....When you remove the air filter under the seat, you will find a small hole in the bottom of the housing the filter came out of....that is the breather hole coming from the crankcase. On the right hand side of the bike, there is a triangular panel with two allen screws holding it there. Inside is the bottom end of the breather hose leading up to that small hole in the filter housing. Thats the hose you need to get off in order to put the filter on in its place.
The reason for the filter going on is to enable the crankcase to breath freely, if you left it the way it was the hole can become blocked with crap and of course the crankcase will then build pressure and likely blow your oil filler cap off.
The old filter housing can now be used as a handy storage area for tools or wet weather gear or the like.
