Yeah but..., could'nt there be a problem with weeping too much water into the carbs without it?
Maybe in a torrential downpour you could get enough in there to cause a minimal impairment. There's a divider inside the airbox that would act as a containment zone for two or three cups of water before you'd get enough to flow into the carb side and even then it would take another couple of cups before it could actually flood the intake inlets and bury the crankcase breather inlet. So, yeah, if you manage to collect a quart of water you could see some drowning. This isn't meant to discount the fact that your motor could breathe in substantial amount of spray if subjected to a long enough deluge but I'm thinking it isn't really so much of a factor.
A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort. Herm Albright (1876 - 1944)
