Greg,
I strongly suspect that no one else on this list would do what I did,
but I feel obligated to tell on myself just in case...
I did this mod two years ago on my Ambo (I think it's described in
Guzziology). When I disabled the flapper it became "free range" in the
breather box. I convinced myself this was ok, later I started spilling
a LOT of oil. You can still see my trail in the street outside my
house. Fortunately I noticed before I destroyed anything (besides the
environment). My suggestion is to make sure you fish the flapper out of
the breather box so it can't make its way to somewhere you don't want it
to be.
