On top of the airbox is what appears to be a porcelain or ceramic block with 2 wires going to it, Is this for handle bar heaters .

yes that is most likely an aftermarket handwarmer resistor.... it makes it so you can have high and low handwarmers
My airbox is held on by one screw, not because Im lazy but because it is less weight!
