I just finished snorkeling my bike today... I just need to run my vents and waterproof some things. I have a 2007 Rincon with a programmer. How can I waterproof my programmer? Also do I have to waterproof my computer under my pod? Which vent lines do I need to run?

Thanks,
Brayden

Where did you put your programer? Could you stick it in some type of small waterproof container and silicone the holes for the wires?

The pod and all of that is water tight as it is.

I put my programmer where my stock snorkel was... right in back of my gas tank

Hey can you show some pics of your snorkel ? I am thinking of putting one on my 07 680 and wanted to see how other did it. Is there anything other that the box that needs vents ? Did you use 1 pipe or 2 ?

Thanks.

I would run either a single 2" I.D. or dual 1.5" I.D. to keep good airflow. Also, on the programmer buy one of the $5 clear Plano tackle boxes at walmart or academy, dremel out the dividers, cut a slip in the side for the wires, put the unit in and silicone her shut! Just make sure you settings are where you want them first.
