You can always run an open air cleaner and just put a center cover on it, either one like this or a stocker from HD.

I like the football as well though I've got a Screamin' Eagle teardrop on mine. The round one looks like a kawasaki or something

If some of you 'ol timers out there never quite gotten used to the football aircleaner like me, HD part number 29138-91 is a bolt on for TC's with the SE air cleaner kit and is an updated version of the classic panhead unit. Retail is $45.
Did you really need this gasket?

"Also fits all '99-later Twin Cam models equipped with Screamin' EagleÂŽ High Flow Air Cleaners when installed with Gasket Kit P/N 29591-99 (sold separately)."

Wow, this thread took off.

I didn't need any gasket, just bolt 'er up and go.

I wish I could get this cleaner cover in an repro pan style bar and shield cover in a 7" version and mod up an EVO 6" reverse taper K&N element for the twin cam. If anybody has a line on such a setup, drop me a line. I like the factory 8" kit but the 7" would really 'have it'.

This is a joker cover I've got on mine , a little pricey , but it is chrome billet . Like it better than the football , you can see the motor better , why cover up factory chrome ?

Here's a knock off that looks like a pretty good deal.

I put mine on without the gasket but it did'nt seat well, only the screw held it straight. With the gasket it mounts firmly and wont twist around.
