Replacing airbox with cone filers and block off plate - what to do with breathers?

sam1905 · 05-13-2012, 07:19 PM

I am slowly building my cafe bike from a 1978 R100RS and have bought K&N cone filters for direct fitting to the carbs and a block off plate to replace the air box. (see link)
The two hoses that entered the airbox from the top/front (cc breathers?) will not work with this plate.
What options do I have - can i just remove the entire 3 hose assembly and if so do I need to replace it with anything?
Thanks
Sam
