You will have to remove your air box, install a K &N crankcase breather filter on top of the transmission, plug the reed valves on top of the
valvecovers and go up to the #38s on the pilot jets, and maybe one size on the main jet.

The K&N number is RC0984 for a set of 4 individual filters.
At Parts411, I think you have to order (4) RC0981. Even with their high shipping, they're $25 cheaper than anywhere else. The jet kit is a FactoryPro 3.0. I use the #138 mains, #38 pilot jets (you'll have to buy these, don't come in the jet kit www.carbparts.com ), clip in second groove from the top, pilot screws out 2 turns from lightly bottomed. On the needle, you'll have to add a washer and another clip above the one in the second groove to keep the needle from moving around under the white plastic hood. This seems to be a tried and true universal baseline set-up for the 1100 Kaw with exhaust and pods. Personally, I'd save the money on the exhaust gas analyzer. As for the rain question, I think it's more "urban legend" than anything else. I had pods on my last Suzuki and rode in the rain no problem. I've ridden in the rain with these as well with no problems. Your legs and knees cover them for the most part while moving. One thing to be aware of though is if you park it in the rain, they will definitely get wet. I use 2 hotel shower caps to cover the filters if it might rain while parked.

A Stage 1 jet kit would be in order when switching to pods with a stock exhaust, buy a Factory kit please. The good K&N individual filters for our bike will cost about $100 + shipping from Parts411. The K&N part number is RC-0984 for a set of 4 filters.
