Matte black vs Gloss black speedstar air cleaner assembly… difference?

The Star Motorcycles website shows STR-5PX09-57-YB as the manufacturer part number.

Yamaha Road Star Warrior Accessories, Yamaha Road Star Warrior Speedstar Chrome Air Cleaner Assembly

The search for an onyx black air cleaner assembly turns up both a matte and gloss version which has the same part number. The matte black has an extra scoop, does anyone know the difference?

I never saw that version before. With the extra scoop on the side.
I said scoop, now I want ice cream.

never seen the one with the little extra scoop on it. might want to contact the seller and make sure it is genuine yamaha and see if they will send you a picture of the packaging w/part number.

If you click on the first link in the OP, it takes you to Yamaha's official site. You'll see the scoop there, it is genuine Yamaha.

What's weird is that I've also seen 2 different chrome versions of the air cleaner, both with the same part number STR-5PX09-57-01.

Anyway, I want to make sure to get the gloss black onyx model to match my Midnight paint.

So I received the air cleaner assembly earlier this week and it's the gloss black one (the air filter was included but was not expecting it). Just wanted to update the thread for those who are looking at maybe buying one.

First of all IMO there is only a shadow photographed in the pic both black and chrome, so it is not additional something. Furthermore there is no matte black available, only the gloss ONYX. And the last pic is a V-Star 1100 Speed* assembly. I adressed the similar question a year ago already
