Interesting topic.
On the Limited the vents in the lowers looks to feed air directly to the intake. I am not sure about swirling air in the ac or if that matters. It's not swirling after it goes through the filter. I figure vacuum is pulling air in. It would be interesting to see the results on a dyno sheet.
good points..guess I was thinking they designed it with some thought towards functionality..sure as Hell couldn't be for looks like some big old appendage eyesore!

So all those hyperchargers laying on the blue tarps at swap meets, selling for a dime a dozen are non functional?😎

ah hell Harleys are the most modified vehicles on the planet..probably landfills, craigslist and salvage shops piled up with parts that have been tried and swapped millions of times
Boyesen 2 stage reed valves in our 2 stroke motocross bikes were must haves!
Yea noticeably more snap hey.
I've used the X wings and also made copies of Xwings and they work .
He had a sure shot or a power shot or something for the accelerator pump in carbs too they worked really well.
All my CR500's had them , I also raised the exhaust port 2 degrees , pointed the transfer ports at each other and drilled a tiny tiny hole in the bridged port of the exhaust port to lube the port so as not to snag a ring, added a heavier flywheel and they were boss trail bikes man ,had 3 of them .

This should probably get its own thread. But...
The air box on the FXDR is hideous. Is that motor making more power? Is there an advantage over any previously designed air cleaner? As barneyboy said. Maybe the MOCO could have put a hyper charger on it.
If you look at the Screaming eagle cover it's open on the front and bottom. I am talking about the one that is similar looking to the one in my picture. There's also several filters that are open all the way around.
I wondered about the effects of removing the plastic from the inside. I wondered if the MOCO actually did some air flow design. After looking at the scoop on the inside bottom. It looked like it was to direct air to the bottom and back of the filter. The bad part was that the bottom of my filter was clogged with oil. No air going into it anyway. Now I have run the vent tube out of the bottom to under the frame
Did you rig that breather bypass with those rubber tubes that lead right into the intake? If you bought them, Could you please send a link?
