I guess it depends on where you ride, but doing this would lower your wading depth, and I think I'd be concerned with water ingress in heavy rain, it does stream acrosss the side panel - when it's biblical, like it usually is up here!

I did it to my TTR, gave loads more response, but I lost too much depth in water, so I replaced it with the stock one.
