Default Air Filters

I am looking to upgrade the air filter on my '09 Night Train and need some advice. My current set-up is

Vance & Hines Chopper II w/ Stage I exhaust
Stage 3 Big Bore

Would like to keep it all black.

Thanks.

I don't "love" the look of these, especially with a big picture of an eagle on it. Anything aftermarket that would be a little less cumbersome?

RSD looks nasty, but the price is just over my budget. I went with Arlen ness Big sucker stage 1 and put a cover on it that is just plan wrinkle black from AZECE, see link below.

You can buy a sock for the big sucker for about $10 on ebay.

I got the rain sock from Outerwears, its a tight fit, but will work

or you can use the stock football cover (looks horrible in my opinion).

I saw that V&H has a new air filter...anyone have any experience with that? What about Kuryakyn? They look pretty cool as well.
