LOL........nope it adds 5rwhp!! Get one!!

It's because of racers. Somehow it migrated to the street. It's there so IF.......(keep in mind thats a BIG IF) a racer had to fill up his resivior for what ever reason during a race or if it was a little OVER full to begin with......it will catch any that may seep out and not let it run down the bike anywhere.
That's all. And......it looks cool. LOL.

the real reason is because of the plastic resevoir. sun can damage the fluid if it is exposed too long.
