    alright guys, around the same time i posted this i emailed buell parts asking them the same question, and they said that the translucent airbox cover is made for 06 and later models and wont fit.

    WHAT IS THIS DISCREPANCY !?!??!?!?!?

    i know that the clear airboxes have that vent in front because of the way it intakes air. but does that cause it not to fit on the bike?

    No, they mislead you. All of the air boxes will fit from 2003 to 2010.

    i assume its because of the air intake. ill be ordering them sometime this week.
