Anyone tried putting one way valves on the intake and exhaust on the cvt covers? something that would push air out but no water in. most snokles you buy have them now so why not put one on the quad, it has to breathe like a human.

i have never heard of that before???? but not for my ride...what if something gets lodged closed and then what...you over heat the cvt!!!! i'll just take my chances with open pipes...i have steel mesh in the ends of all my snorkel pipes to keep mice and any other debris from getting i there...remember that the intake is like a vacume cleaner when the bike is moving!!!
