I tried searching around Google and found a bunch of sportster forums about guys that run this cleaner. i REALLY like the clean design but im building my bike for go rather than show, so my question how does the JM hold up performance wise? or would i be better off with an RSD?

thx for the help

The performance of the JM will be about the same as the RSD. I have one on my Sportster as well. I was thinking of throwing one on the Dyna now also and I really like the fact that it does not stick out as far as the RSD so if you have forward controls it is a lot less likely to be in the way of your leg.

The RSD runs a bigger filter and it is wider as well. the smaller side of teh RSD is about 5 3/4".

I like RSD air filters buy they are a little too big to my liking, I like something smaller so I can show the cylinders.
My setup AN big sucker 1 $95 and original football field trimmed cover.

The filter on the big sucker is the same size as the filter on the RSD units.

I should correct what I have said, the RSD cover is big not the actual filter element, they are the same size, my bad.

Not a Dyna, but the JM air cleaner is the shiznit. Been running it for 7 months now and it has been flawless. As others have said, the added leg room is a huge bonus and I personally think it compliments the lines of the motor exceptionally well.
