Rain sock for open AC?
Hi All any suggestions for a rain sock for an open big sucker type air cleaner? I have an RSD with a K&N style filter.
I've been looking around with not much luck. I only seem to find the forcewinder types
Thanks

I don't think you need one. I've been running an open K&\\;N filter for 2 years, and have ridden in lots of rain, including hours-long downpours without a hiccup.
Cheers!

Do you all simply place a bag over the AC when cleaning it, or does that matter?

On my last bike... I ran an open. I always wrapped a bag around it when I washed it with a rubber band.

Since this thread is the top hit threat when you search google for "rain sock harley AC," and it doesn't have a clear cut solution...

Every K&N filter, under accessories, has a rain sock to go with it! Should would great, besides the big white K&N on it.
