Default Clean air mod and ram air removal

i'm familiar with this mod on the F4i, for those who dont know, you redirect the crankcase vent hose to two other hoses that enter the head and out the exhaust. You do this to prevent hydrolock and the vacuum helps crankcase pressure.

my question is, is there a hose on the F3 that i can reroute my vent hose to?

The next portion of my question involves the PAIR valve removal, so i can remove the ram air setup, ive searched, but once again cant find anything pertaining to the F2/F3.

because from every review Ive ever read, it says nothing but good about the ram air. I have rode in some seriuse rain and never had a "hydro lock" issue, unless you take your bike places I sure dont, i cant imagine you having issues

i shouldve ellaborated. this is on my stunt bike. i have no need for the ram air. as for the hydro lock, its from oil, not water. if the bike is on its side, the crankcase vent hose has a high chance of shooting oil out, and it goes right into the airbox, possibly locking the engine up.

i have a 97 thats titled and ridden everyday, and i wouldnt dare do any of these changes to her.

lol its ok. yes, when the bike is near balance point the engine has a good chance of spewing oil out of the crankcase breather (i overfill a little, intentionally)

on bikes where this mod is applicable, that hose is routed to the exhaust, that way there is still a vaccuum source, and should oil start shooting out, it is burned by the exhaust. it seems there is no place on the f3s to route the incoming oil to
