                This is the emmisions control box found on California models and others perhaps?   Take the two hoses that go to it and plug them into a plastic vacuum T from the auto parts store, leaving the third hole of the T open. Tuck it all away and remove the box from your sissy bar.  Ugly box gone... 

Bike should run fine
