Not really anything else. These had major cooling issues. |

Yes they were revised to resolve the cooling issue, now they don't look great. |

Yep waiting on testing to see how they really perform. Who needs them if you cook the engine? |

Cherry_Bomb - I'm on pins and needles until February. Once you receive the kit would you mind posting up photos of the parts? It's hard to see from the FS web site the details. |

Does anyone know how much the OE scoops weigh? I saw these ones claiming to be 15-20 lbs lighter and make your bike run around 20 degrees cooler. http://www.flexi-glass.com/buell.cfm |

15-20 lbs?!?! i can't see that much of a savings in plastics vs fiberglass... maybe in the whole bike, but not just in farings |

One set up was for race only. The other was for the street or track. The race only would overheat if used on the street since it removed the fans (maybe that's where they save the #'s). The other set up just plain overheated. |
