Just got back from my ride. With 12 air box cover and the race kit installed CORRECTLY, the bike flies and I mean flies.

I am a happy man. Recommend this combo to everyone.

Good riding!!

WOW! Rode my XB9R yesterday with the 12 airbox cover and yes I also found the snorkel in and a dealer installed the race kit. Oh well it was one of the first XB's the dealer sold.
Back to the ride- my XB has been on the dyno at AMI in Daytona for Bikeweek, and on the local H-D dealer here. It did 80hp at the back wheel both times. It always had the hesitation around 4000+/- now it revs to the limiter! Rode my buddies RC 51 and then back on the XB it is gonna be fun in Daytona- great improvement-HIGHLY recommend it.

can you remove it on a stock 12? No dealership paws necessary?

I think I may have read somewhere that the 12 has an adequate snorkel... Or at least better than the 9's... I could be wrong though. I say yank it, test it, tell us : ).
