Just bought an 09 XB12Ss and love it so far. Few questions...the scoop on the left side of the motor is just for directing air between the 2 cylinders? I did an air box mod last night and could not see where that intake led to the airbox, I was surprised the only air intake were the small holes just behind the gas cap. When I eventually get a pipe, is removing the exhaust valve mtr difficult, is the valve inside the stock pipe? Does Buell make any race pipes themselves? Thanks for the help, owned many bikes, but this is my 1st Buell.
