It's an Amsoil conical filter mounted on the SE heavy breather. I am not a K&N fan. Yes, Amsoil also has s rain sock for this filter; just in case you were thinking it

Don't know. I found this tip looking at some sportster stuff. Complex try stumbled on it. It's a popular mod there for the same size wheels. Started measuring and found out it'll fit. I think Metzler has some similar sizes but they're pricey. Feedback on these tires is all positive and the rest was $104 on Amazon.

Here it is. Not a huuuuge difference, but looks much better. Like I said earlier, the profile, design, and shape of this tire does as much for the bike if not more so than width alone. Very happy. No clearance issues anywhere. Not even close. 130/90 on the front. Sorry for the garage pics. Get some better in the future. Couple more projects next week and then some better pics.
