Well some would say yes others may say no. I think it's truly up to the person that owns the bike. Some may just want the look of the scoop others may say it actually works. It's kinda like the teflon tape argument going on.

South,
Why you trying to stir something up?
You've been around long enough to this subject has been beat to death.
This and the muffler thread.
It's like you're looking for trouble, just so you can bitch about getting in trouble.
You my friend are on thin ice.
Please stop trolling, or your trolling will be stopped.

I don't have an XB, but I always thought the scoop was a good idea for no other reason than it made the appearance more symmetrical. Whether it's worth the price... that's up to the user.

Do any XB racers use them? You don't see bling on a racebike, at least not the fast ones.

Who me????? I was just looking and LOL to myself and YOU had to bring me into this thread. The only time I troll is when I'm on thin ice! At 32+ days over 95F the ice is REAL thin. Now you will get me for hijacking the thread so I'll at least answer:

A: Yes
B: Yes

It's a farkle and by def'n it has to be both.

It's not a waste of money, but i don't have one because i love my fan. Hell if they made an inverted scoop to make the fan run longer, i would get that. : )

I am researching people's opinions.
That is my intent.
So I'm going to get kicked out for
RESEARCHING Buell's and Buell people opinions?

I believe I took more personal slams
than any one here and you don't
tell them anything.

I on the other had challenge these opinions
and I'm getting booted.

nice fair website...

Who ever said this place was fair? I've been stepping on toes and getting my snout slapped for 7 years on this board... you just got to roll with it.

Generally, just let people believe what they want to believe. Say what you want to say one time, support your statements and move on to the next inane argument. Multiple threads pointing out the same issue is going to get on everyone's nerves no matter how right you are, especially a moderator who has to wade through all the flotsam and jetsam... fairness has nothing to do with it.

Sometimes it's not so much what type of info you're looking for as much as it is the way you ask for it (pun intended).

I don't know what other stuff you've posted, just replying to this specific thread. Sarcasm and humor are delicate presentations on the internet, sometimes they come across, sometimes they flop, or flip flop, or just flap in the breeze in a crosswind downwind from a chili cookoff next door to a stuffed cabbage corned beef competition. YMMV, as it apparently has.

I might suggest:
Thread Title: XB Right Side Scoop (aka: ice cream scoop)
"A quick poll"
"1. Does nothing but drain the wallet."
"2. Works well and well worth the money."

Still a little bit of attitude, a bit of sarcasm and humor, but not too sledgehammerspatula in your face crude.

first and foremost and so it shall be called
Ice Cream scoop.

jugs= good, Bigger Jugs= better, the more juggs of ice cream are MUCH better. Coming from one that has scooped his fair share of ice cream, these juggs would be a handful in any man's book.

At least we are not talking about sex or copying someone else's work.

SSBO, I think you have a valid question to ask, even if I don't agree with the way you asked it.

So as I have asked before, when and how are you going to publish all this data you are collecting?

If it's research you want why not research it.
No need to ask the same damned question over and over.
The search feature at the top of this page works fine.

There I've done the hard part, there's enough reading there to keep you busy for a while.
There's plenty more, just do a search for right side air scoop and you'll get the rest of the links, I didn't go back more than a year or two.
