Default Round air cleaner

08 Deluxe and wondering if there are there any round air cleaner mounting kits available to replace the football style without having to go to a stage 1? Just a stock for stock shape change basically.

I don't believe you're going to get away with a round AC cover without swapping out to a AN Big Sucker or SE AC. The backplate you have on there now is the football shaped. I have not found a way and swapped out the AC on both bikes to get the round cover.

I like the Roland Sands venturi air cleaner myself. What I hope to go with on the rocker if able to and when budget allows.

I have V&H duals. If I swap out to the SE kit I will have increased air flow (opended up both ends). Won't I have to add a fuel pak or fuel managment system? Was trying to avoid that for now.

Yes you will, either a fuel pack or a SERT or a PCIII... but after spending all that money on the pipes and your ape hangers and all that other stuff youve done to your bike, why would you want to cheap out now (300 bucks) and not do things the right way?

Ahhh... the answeris in the question. It is because I have spent all that money on those other things that I can't spend anything else right now. I would like a round air clenner but not enough to have to spend an additional $300 right now to have one. As it is, my wife isn't going to like the chrome brake calipers I just bought for her for Christmas. Oh...did I mention that my wife doesn't have a bike?
