I have searched a bit to no luck so I’m sorry if this has been explained before…. I bout a 2010 S with 3500 miles over the weekend and was going to service it last night so I changed the oil and was doing a airfilter change when I noticed where the lid of the airbox meets the housing it has about a 1-2 inch hole looks like a stick got thrown off the tire and hit housing so it was making a sucking sound. Air filter held up good because the intake tube looked clean. My question is I’m replacing it and how tough is it to remove the air filter housing and install a new stock airbox. It looked fairly simple but I really don’t want to remove the bed does anyone have any tips?
