If you can change the air filter on your bike, you can handle CCTs.
First confirm which one it is. Front (slightly cramped one) usually goes first.
Throttle bodies stay on! Save your $150 on labor. The CCT can be had for less than $50 ea. will find the honda link that sells to vfrd for 10% over cost.

DIY instructions; read though this thread. You'll get the hang.

I've followed the tutorial above and successfully did it myself. Pretty straightforward if you know which end of a wrench to use. Took me an afternoon but wasn't difficult and saved a hefty fee from a dealer.
