Bought the DB Holders front stay with attached air duct after I shattered the OEM one last season. Do I need the two sensors circled in the pic? The service manual
refers to them as the atmospheric pressure sensor and intake air temp sensor. The DB holder stay/air duct doesn't have a place to mount them, do I have figure out
how to mount them or can i just tuck it away.

This is for a 2017 dedicated track bike btw.

Thanks!

It will throw check engine lights if they are unplugged, I just responded to another 17+ thread where the guy needs them because they were left on the OEM parts and sold. I would reach out to db holders and see what they recommend, but I know tucking them (at least the temp sensor) might not be wise as on the S1000rr a company sells a relocating kit to move its air temp sensor because it gets heat soaked and causes a change in the fueling. They relocate it similar to where yours sits currently.
