go to the tech section index and find "cone filter mod"

Although I have heard the word before and new what it meant.....I felt the need to find out where it came from.  This is what I found in my Google search:

"Bupkis is a Yiddish word, which is literally translated as “beans” and is derived from a Slavic word for “goat droppings.” Apparently goat droppings look like beans, although I’ve never actually seen any goat droppings."

Thanks, Verslagen!  I think my problem was indeed my (mis)use of the search function.  Also, I was using search terms with "air filter", not "cone filter", that's probably why I missed it.

Theres an Emgo filter that most dudes on here switch to in order to ditch the airbox.  Check the OD of the carb flange and find the matching filter.  Most moto shops should have it, if not, Amazon has them.  Ditching the airbox is a bit more labor intensive than it may seem though.  Give yourself a bit of time.  
The cone fits with the stock battery box its just a bit snug.  The battery housing is a bit flexible (mounted on rubber bushings) so you can use a belt to pull it towards the rear tire which creates a bit more room to work.
 
You could also repurpose the airbox to fit the battery if you want to creative.  

Rejetting depends somewhat on preference, and location/elevation.  Refer to the master threads pinned in the tech section

Happy modding!
