The spike looks great on fattboy1967s fatty!

After about 3 weeks on mine, I gotta say that I'm impressed with the seat-of-the-pants feel that I've bumped tq and hp above what she was with the K&N. Still haven't gotten around to the re-tune, but it's on the list

I'm not impressed with the fit of the spike to the elbow as far as the gap goes, but I have that turned to the inside so it's not noticable. No issues with it getting wobbly either, but it is tightened down pretty good.

Well it was a bit of a struggle, but I got the thing installed. Like I mentioned before, the instructions aren't that great. I couldn't get the mounting holes to line up between the adapter plate and my carb. I finally figured out that the adapter plate is just that, an adapter plate, and not needed for a stock installation. The elbow just bolts directly to the carb.

But here's my question to all of you that have installed the carb. version. What do you do with your breather????? I now think I should have bought the EFI version, because it comes with those "piston looking" breather ports. The stock breather bolts are too long to screw back in to the top of the cylinder and I dont think you just leave those two holes open. I don't think you can just plug them either, or can you?
