Make me an offer. The difference between the XB9 cover and the XB12 is how the air flows at the velocity stack. Then if you cut holes in it, the cover then you'll get even more air flow into the engine. More info from this board: http://www.badweatherbikers.com/buell/messages/32777/42314.html "My friend & I have just dyno'd our 2 4000ml 03 XB9s's using 3 options: (1) Standard airbox (2) 12lid on the 9 base (3)Chopped-up 9lid (all the plastic removed apart from thin strips,where it attaches to the base-plate (bit like a spider). The dyno is in Southampton UK,therefore it is roughly at sea level,and it was a rainy day 6c'ish. 1# Standard 9 airbox @ 72.7rwhp 59.3Ft Lb torque. 2# 12lid on the 9's baseplate 75.3rwhp,62.8Ft Lb torque. 3# Hacked-up 9lid 75.4rwhp,60.1Ft Lb torque. 1&2 were dyno'd on my mates 9s No:3 was on my 9s. It appears both the 12lid & the hacked-up 9lid do offer an improvement over the standard item,although the chopped lid looses 2.7Ft Lb to the 12lid." (Message edited by t9r on September 07, 2006) |

I have not a clue as to what they cost to begin with. Tell me that and I can answer or give me a price. |
