Why Revive a Sunnah of RASULULLAH. (Sallallahu Alayhi Wasallam) ?
1. The Prophet’s way is the best way.
“Truly, in the Messenger of Allah [SAWS] you have a good example to follow for the one who hopes for the Meeting with Allah and the Last Day and remembers Allah much.” [Quran-33:21]
2. The Sunnah of the Prophet [SAWS] is THE way to get Allah’s love.
“Say: If you (really) love Allah then follow me [SAWS], Allah will love you and forgive you your sins. And Allah is Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful.” [Al-e-Imran:31]
3. Following the Sunnah will help us increase in good deeds.
“…Help you one another in Al-Birr and At-Taqwa (virtue, righteousness and piety); but do not help one another in sin and transgression. And fear Allah. Verily, Allah is Severe in punishment.” [AlMaidah:2]
4. The AJR! Large amounts of ajr (reward) is up for grabs!
“Whoever revives an aspect of my Sunnah that is forgotten after my death, he will have a reward equivalent to that of the people who follow him, without it detracting in the least from their reward.” [Reported by al-Tirmidhi]
5. The Revival of the Ummah can only come by following the Sunnah of the Prophet [SAWS]
The last of this Ummah will not be corrected except by which the first of this Ummah was corrected by and that is the Book and the Sunnah. [Imam Darul Hijra, Malik ibn Anas {r} d. 179]

Item number 4 looks a bit "tricky" in this day and age. The rewards are high but the stakes are even higher. To revive an aspect of the sunnah that is forgotten... how can we revive if it is forgotten? It can contribute to 'adding' things to the sunnah..
As long as my heart does beat, I shall live, not lie
For when my heart does stop its beat, with truth, I die.
