That just keeps the shroud from rattling/vibrating. No shroud, no need.

Does this plastic ring serve any purpose other than keeping your lower shroud from floppin' around? There's no reference to it in my Hayne's manual..It looks like ya gotta destroy the thing to get it off...I'm putting gaitors back on so If thats it's only purpose I have no problem cutting it off.
After reading StevieB's Gaiter install thread I see that ring is used to hold the gaiter in place. So now I need to figure out how to remove in one piece so i can reinstall after powdercoat.
