Guess I already know the answer but it will be too hard for the back cylinder if I took off the air scoop from the left side and the plastic cover/scoop on the right? I know this will put more pressure on the fan to cool down but I would like to see more the cylinder heads.

Do NOT do it! The engine will run much hotter. I ran for a week without the left scoop after it fell off, I observed quite a change in running temperature, plus the fan ran a hell of a lot more. Unfortunately the Fuel in Frame design starves the airflow as it was originally intended for a watercooled motor, so thats why the scoops are there.

You can always pick up a nice used tuber : )
