The scoote 2 hood looks like it has the most venting available from their list. I wish more people with hoods would post up some numbers because I want to know if venting is as good or better than a 575/stinger/victory/viper which has a scoop to focus outside air over towards the air intake.

With the stock hood on cold to about 50 degrees outside I run 20-30 degrees over ambient, when the ambient temp goes up to about 70 my intake temps go up to about 30-60 over ambient. As it gets warm out it will probably be even worse I suspect.
