I have the Screamin' Eagle heavy breather but l really like what Ness has to offer. I was checking them out last weekend at the Donnie Smith show in St. Paul and they sure look good.

I have the SE Chisel Extreme Billet but I probably would have pulled the trigger on a Roland Sands had a nice discount from HD not been available.

I'm running the HD heavy breather with a stubby filter. I keep the rain sock on full time and have great luck with it. I snagged that breather off my CVO Road King before trading it!

I have the Harley stage 1 upgrade that "keeps the stock housing."
Really wish I had gone with the FM version that actually keeps the stock backplate. But I bought mine at bike week when I had a couple brews in me soooo... Ya. Haha

Stock, hi flow, cleanable and reusable filter and housing it came with. Not because I'm cheap, because I like the way it looks and it has all the air flow the engine can draw in at max rom and then some.
