Default S&S air cleaner cover for Mikuni HSR42mm carb?

Can I run an S&S tear drop air cleaner or at least an air cleaner cover with a Mikuni HSR42mm carb?

If so, what parts / adapters do I need?

Thanks

You will need to get an adapter. This as the HSR needs to be held on at the breathers with a bracket which goes accross the front fo the carb as oppossed to the super E or G which is a bolt on carb and the breathers are part of the air cleaner. With the mikuni the breathers are part of the bracket.

Check some after market air kits as well such as stacks as if you need to pay cash, get something sick looking...

Check with Scooters Performance as John may have one. I don't have their web site handy but you can google them. Arlen Ness has one as well.

Thanks.

Do you know what aftermarket (if any) air cleaner covers are made for the Mikuni HSR42?

I might just have to go with the S&S Super E total carb kit instead of the Mikuni.
