      Well I personally think it's butchering the bike. Personally I just use a pod filter.

          My stock bike runs better with the snorkel removed, and the hole in the airbox enlarged.

          I have added a little splash guard to keep the water away from the opening.

            I know this is old, but to help future readers, I have very good results with snorkle removed and 250 main jet, this is paired with a full system.

                Yes, might be glued in like the airbox halves are glued / screwed together

                  Should just pull out, will be stiff due to the big lip mind, mine came out fine.

                      Put a flat blade between the air box and snorkel and leverage it out. Don't just tug it out.

                      Personally I prefer my bikes with Snorkels in as they ride better.
