another quick question. where you have plugged the female end, i had a quick look last night. it seems this pipe is attached to the HICAS system, so in effect when you attach the pipe from the lower male pipe to the top attachment near the battery tray, it looks as if this pipe with the female end would be cut out and it is part of the hicas system which you would be able to remove, im probably wrong as ive only taken a quick look and havent actually done it but just thought i'd check
Thanks all
