Yes the stock snorkel shaped like an "S" take that out make sure the vaccum hose is the same size as the part of the "S" shaped snorkel that was inserted in the air box and then just clamp on the vaccum hose.

When you install the air box snorkel make sure you leave enough room so you can turn the handlebars without hitting the snorkel,and make sure you make some type of bracket to attach to the front rack to hold the snorkel still up front cause if nothing is there to support it it will flop around.

I was thinking of trimming back the parts of the rear fender that hang down like mud flaps.

You could make your recon look like a 300ex by removing the headlights and headlight panel , just take out the screws holding the headlights and headlight panel, the screws are attached to the bottom of the front fender and the wires going to the headlights have a spot where you can unplug the all 3 the wires.The 3 wires that unplug are the high beam,low beam and off.and they are held by a little bracket just on the left side of where the rack comes through the plastic.
