and what is it supposed to do?
I mean, it looks ok, but does it really provide any benefit?

I am sure someone will tell us exactly what it is.I do think you are correct - it sort of serves as a cable tidy but does provide some crude form of targeted air ingress for the left side of the rear cylinder. Looks a bit period to me, maybe a 70's bit of aftermarket kit?
I saw that bike at some of the vintage rallies. He used a electric fan mounted in the Vee, like the horn mounting on a Ironhead, which he used to turn on in traffic. As Dave said it was a really neat job.One of our ex-members had a homemade fan, made from a stainless cooking pot - but what a neat job he made of it.
