Default Yet another Forcewinder question

Well I'm confused!

I'm looking at getting a Forcewinder XR2 for my ('08)1200C and now I don't know which to get. I see XR, XR2, Dominator, etcand some of the sites (Dennis Kirk, Parts Direct, J&P Cycles) don't explain which filter will fit which bike and I see differences everywhereI look. At first I thought the XR was for carbed bikes and XR2 for EFI but I really can't get a good answer. I'm not spending 300 hard-earned ones for something that won't work when I get it. And they need the support bracket and I've seen different breathers too?

I like the look, andForcewinder iswhat I'm sticking to...if only I can figure out which one will fit my bike!

Any help, appreciated.

Check out the Howling Chicken part. ( screaming eagle ) Looks almost identical to the Forcwinder and is cheaper too. Comes with mounting bracket that directs the oil blowby where it's supposed to go. no more leaks.
