Seeing as so many people add a right side scoop to their Buells... is there a good reason they don't come with one?
It seems like a good idea, but why doesn't Buell think so and add it at the factory?

This has been discussed before, its because of issues with it passing EPA noise testing and a issue with it blocking airflow over the fuel rails at parade speeds. It was in Fuell, last issue i think.

I think you'll find the answers you're looking for here: http://www.badweatherbikers.com/cgibin/discus/sear ch.cgi

On a serious note, Froggy is right - something about getting the fuel rails too cold or something silly for almost any rider.

Read the thread and make you own decisions.

You will find it is a very heated argument.
