98 KDX200 - two different sized airbox snorkels?

Post by AussieKDX200 »

Hi guys

My KDX came with a second airbox snorkel that's smaller in opening size than what's in the bike.

What's that used for? Here's a pic:

Hello,
I'm not an expert but it looks like what is used to limit the power in France, in addition to the carburetor and clamping toggle (we have a lot of different motorcycle license..) you're sure it goes on the 200?
i'm French and I don't speak English very well, so, please, excuse me :)

I'll be taking the larger snorkel that's currently in the bike out, and enlarging the hole substantially...followed by a rejet.

I was simply curious as to why Kawasaki would include an even smaller/less free flowing option!
