It's not the 1000 snorkle - it's pretty much behaved itself since this was put in
It only coughed with it out, and the tank raised.
The snorkle(s) are rubber, and they're push fit, so you can easily pop it out, go for a spin, and then put it back in if you don't like it.
Tank is easy to remove/raise. Undo the 2 bolts, and simply lift as the tank is hinged, then use the tank prop that should be under the pillion seat to hold it up.
