On either side of the frame on my 750, under the petrol tank are two triangular ugly pieces of bluey/grey plastic that I beleive house the breather pipes. These look absolute crap! :mad:

Has anyone got any tips regarding replacing them or removing them or just unbolting them and cable tie-ing them somewhere else. :confused:

What do you Chaps with stripped down Monsters suggest??? :)

Thanks Pedro, But, I've had a look and still can't find them under "modifications" or "performace", where abouts are they hidden?????

took mine off and just ran the breathers elsewhere. then took the so called carb warmers off and run the starter wire round the left. All I now have on the right is the little oil pressure wire. soon to be moved. here we go from the standard brigade "we love the pods, they re so cute etc.." :)

Couldn't agree more Mr Yerbs, took three screws out of mine, gave it a tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap and off it came. Through the F**KIN bearing housing for the commutator end. :eek: :eek: :mad: :mad:
Three said screws happened to be two mounting screws and 'a' another. :rolleyes:
Quoted £375 for a new one :eek:
Got a second hand one for £80 :p
