Default Screamin Eagle Heavy Breather with Forward Controls.
I have a 2011 Dyna Super forward controls with reduced reach. Has anyone put on the Screamin Eagle forward air cleaner and have any clearance issues with there knee's. I tried the Kuryakyn Mach 2 air cleaner, but it pushed into my knee.
Thanks.

Ditto... I have the long-legged version, and I wonder if my 32" inseam is going to put my knee, square into that air cleaner?.

I had it at one time. Got tired of looking at it. The only part that was close to my knee was the elbow of the intake. Not the filter itself.

I'm 6'2" and run a heavy breather with forward controls on my wide glide. No issues with my knee or leg rubbing against the intake...

30" inseam with standard FXDWG forward controls, no issues whatsoever. My pipes are a bigger concern for me...
