yes.
From experience, I would suggest you get the carb version.
you can stick the air temp sensor in the breather hole in the filter and reroute the breather to a catchcan (or the street like me)

The breather setup on forcewinders is specifically designed to condense the babysnot out and have it drip on your right shoe.

The diff between the 2 versions is the fitler and some trim / breather As Nate suggests the breathers should not be used
ask me how I know

Difference is the extra hole in filter for temp sensor. Personally I haven't had any puking issues and I run the breather into the filter, but the majority do get some amount. I agree w/ Nate. Go with the XR1 and re-route breather.Better yet plug the breather holes, get XB heads and run that line to the catch can.

You will put the sensor in the hole for the breather line. You can either run a closed loop from the side breather holes or plug them. The XR2 does come w/ a dress up tube for the sensor, if you want that, get the XR2 and plug one of the filter holes. The fatter silver piece ( in pic ) is the dress up tube.
