I found an vacuum sensor of sorts just behind the airbox with no vacuum line attached. Any Ideas? |

Yes, I believe that is the solenoid that controls full on throttle in 3rd gear. The previous owner must have "de=noided" it. This was an EPA requirement that Buell had to meet to sell that bike. |

Forget my stupidity, what do you mean by de=noided? |

The removal of the solenoid that would force shut the valves at a particular rpm range in 3rd gear (IIRC). It would later then release and allow the valves to open and this caused an unexpected blip of power as you are accelerating. |

its probably your baro sensor, does it have a nipple on one end with an oring on it? |

Barometric sensor only has wired connection - so you aren't missing a hose - good to go. |

And it clips into the base of the airbox and has a hole that is brass lined? If so than ohsoslow is correct its the baro sensor |

Nope no Brass Lining, it does clip in the back edge of the airbox with a green o-ring. |

Baro sensor, make sure it clips so the nipple is kind of pointed down/sideways. |
