Ok, so you guys are saying that pulling that rubber thing out altogether does NOT cause moisture problems? I keep looking at the setup, and it looks like if you leave the thing out in the rain on the kickstand (hey, it's gonna happen eventually) that water can basically just pour down into the filter -- which, to the untrained eye, would be BAD.
The result, then, is that you should just take a razor to the tube portion of the thing? It clearly restricts the airflow...
The other thing, of course, is that I'm a little worried about her running lean... but I guess that's an incentive to do the carbs, hunh?
