If I have read right, you have one of the standard dump valves off the air box. Is ok as long as you plug up the hole in the airbox. :)

Yeah, as long as you have the right hose, take it off from the airbox, blank off the hole in the airbox and cable tie the dump valve somewhere so it doesn\'t foul anything or rattle about.

Where the DV would usually go in that piece of rubber, I have removed it and placed a bung into the rubber. Found that to be the easyes\'t way. Also if you decide you don\'t like it it\'s really quick and easy to put back. :)
