^ f3 also has fuel pump IIRC. F2 has carb vents but no ram air. Mine still ran like shite at high speed w/o the fairings though.
My zx7 had no issues with the ram are ducts removed. So that statement isn't necessarily true. Make sure the air filter box is tight with no leaks since that's where it becomes pressurized.

as per my pm to crf3: (figured some others might find this usefull)
put the ram air tube back on, if you can.
if not, try taking the vent filter off, and try covering some of the airbox opening with duct tape (make the opening smaller, basically)
getting ram air equipped bikes to run right with the ram air removed can be a headache. i'd try the duct tape thing first. it doesn't really limit the AMOUNT of air that the motor gets, but it SPEEDS UP the air that goes into the motor, which is what your problemn is. when you make any opening bigger, but still pull the same volume of air thru at any given rpm, the air moves slower than it would thru a smaller opening.
it's like sticking your finger over the end of a garden hose to increase the pressure and velocity of the water. same basic principle.
