Question Heavy Breather replacement question

Anyone know if you can purchase the red exposed breather itself? I need a replacement. I see the kits and the socks but no red exposed breather.

Thanks Suburban! I also called out to AZ cause I'm in Indiana and couldn't wait till tomorrow to know the answer. The part number for HD is 29424-05A and it cost $80, ugh. Believe it or not a cat had did the damage with it's claws. And no to anyone else who responds I didn't kill the cat.

my buddy got a close copy at advanced auto parts. I think AC componets was the brand. It was blue, but the opening was the same. If I remember it was 25 bucks.

No problem, ET.

And was the damage caused from the cat after you hit it with your tire, and it bounced over the handlebars and hung on to your heavy breather for dear life?
