Default flapper mod on an 06?

I've looked and looked and can not see those dang little doors on my 06. Are they there or did they change the air intake configurantion from the 05's and lower? Don't want to beat a dead horse but looking for a little extra...especially if it is free and easy...

Thanks in advance

Thanks, I had read about this on the hooliganbiketech web site and saw it was written in Aug of 05. The little flapper doors are obvious in those pictures on the 05 bike, but not exactly the same air intake config on the 06 so thought I would check with you guys fo rsome input.

Looks like I'll pull the hose and cap it off.

Thanks!

So, if I understand correctly. I just have to put a screw in the hose, and that's is? I don't have to remove the valve?
My english is not so good, some parts of the tekst, I don't understand completely.

Thakns in advance

That is correct just plug the end of the hose. I just put a golf tee in mine and used a zip tie to keep it out of the way.
