Glad I noticed, my filter was starting to rub.

first my bolt broke from the rubber and then the bracket piece broke and now I notice that the tubing is caving in around the edges where the filter goes on. I have my hose clamps just slightly snugged so nothing comes apart but I have to keep checking them.

A fix Ive used before was to get a piece of metal and bend two "L"'s on the ends and use the clamp at the filter to snug one end and then bolt th other end to a bolt on the fender. The rubber kind of acts as a shock absorber and I havent had any break since.

My rubber conector broke for the second time i just noticed so i am currently in the works of finding an alternet option for mounting it.

I wonder if you cut the intake near there and added a silicone hump hose (helps with vibration) if it would help to hold it up.
