  1. #1

    99% certain they are interchangeable.

    They're all interchangeable but the ones from an XB9 and 1125 don't have the mesh vent in front like the ones for the XB12.

    BamBam is an '06 XB9SX and he has the mesh front, makes him go faster too

    Early 12's didn't have the mesh either. The 06 or 07 Model Years started getting them, but the intake hole in the left side of the tank/frame went away to increase fuel capacity.

    Mesh started in 06. I thought it was on both the 9s and 12s, hmmm... Yes, all airbox covers between all models 03 to 10 are interchangeable.

    Yeah the airbox covers are all the same, the 03-05 have the hole in the frame that is why the airbox cover doesnt have the vent. You need the vent if you dont have the hole in the frame.

    I really doubt you really need the vent. My airbox sets up off the frame far enough I'd think plenty of air leaks in around it...
