Well spotted Flip.

The breather boxes were also removed before I owned it, and the pipes are now cut off short.

Soon after I got the bike I posted a thread on here as I extended them downwards to under the engine, but experienced all sorts of running issues, including the float bowls emptying on the motorway. http://www.ukmonster.co.uk/monster/s...ad.php?t=53566

I've tried several options now, and each one gives causes some sort of issue.

I have actually brought some boxes, but am reluctant to fit them as I don't like the look of them.
