To actually achieve the FULL 50 HP boost, you also need polymer grips and billett valve stems. At the end of the day, it's JUST an air cleaner...

 

If it has the name Kuryakyn then it is a piece of crap!

 

adds 50hp with the purchase of crack pipe 🤣

 

Just to put this into perspective, when I went to enter the new map on my fuel-pak, for the base map they wanted to know exact details on my exhaust as far as brand and model of mufflers and pipes. Also the same with any internal engine mods. When it came to aftermarket air cleaners, they didn't care in the littlest except whether I have a high flow or stock air filter. This tells me there is little difference between the cheapest and most expensive designs and more moving parts equals more things to break.

That said, I kind of like the look of a flat black hyper-charger. They are low profile so don't get in the way of my knee and I don't feel like I'm having to turn my ankle to get to the brake pedal. A open air filters need a rain sock to keep the water out. Pretty sure you could get one to fit over a hyper-charger too if you really felt the need. If the price was right, I would consider putting one on my Sporty but my Street Glide has a Roland Sands and I'm happy with it.

 

One came on my 1999 8k mile Titan Roadrunner so I had no choice in the matter. < That being said I do think Hyperchargers DO add hp in the 45-75mph range strictly due to the ram-air effect of it sticking so far out its a hassle to use your rear brake. I neither 'ride in the rain' or 'behind log trucks dumping 50gal(s) of water' on me or through clouds or bugs. I highly doubt the hp boost is more than 10hp at best. But then again we've all seen guys add $1,500 worth of pipes, cams or whatever for no more than 18hp boost so what the ___ difference is a $250 air cleaner w/ moving parts? Continue the revival.....

My Titan doesn't have a single HD part on it so what the hell business is it of mine anyway?
