Removing the AI system is easy, and will help reduce heat build-up in the head and probably stop any "popping" from the pipes on decel. The black cannisters on the bottom/back side of the motor just recover "emissions" coming off the carb vent when the bike isn't running. This system, (two cannisters, two valves and several hoses) can be easily removed, but I'd only do so if you don't need to have the bike emission tested. I've done both modifications, with no problems. Just be sure to keep the carb vent open, and seal up the vaccuum ports. Some good detailed instructions for both projects can be found on the wiki site associated with this website.
Neither of these projects will do anything to improve performance, however. Try some good aftermarket pipes, remove the snorkle, install a high flow filter, and re-jet the carbs / drill the slides for some performance gains. Check out the Jenks guide for more details on all this. Lots of help is available to those who ask on this site!
Good luck!
