Air cleaner upgrade
Hi Guys, I want to increase the breathing of my 2000 1200S HDI spec bike. It is currently still fitted with the "OE" type filter (See Image) which is not freely available. Is K&N the only replacement or their another replacement. My HD is fitted with straight thru screaming eagle exhausts.
Any advise will be appreciated.

Hammer Performance sells some nice a/C, Joker Machine, DK customs (a sponsor here)
many people sell good a/c for the sporty!

Are you just looking for the filter element or do you want a whole new a/c? If looking for a new a/c, here's what I got from Hammer Performance. They also make variations that can use a stock hamcan. NRHS also carries the Hurricane Flow which also uses a stock hamcan: http://www.nrhsperformance.com/partshurricaneflow.shtml.

Thanks Guys, Unfortunately very few aftermarket A/C's are available in South Africa for HD bikes. From the local HD dealers you can get Screaming Eagle and K&N performance filters. Lots of other performance AC importers for other bike makes.(Japs)

Don't mean to hijack the thread but I got a quick question I figure I could ask here as opposed to starting a new thread..
My 883 came with python slip-on(I believe they are slip-on) pipes, if I upgrade the air cleaner do I need to get the fuel injection reprogrammed or is this something the computer compensates on its own?
Thanks in advance for any replies. I appreciate it.

HD has a Stage 1 ECM flash that they can do when you change a/c and pipes to keep from running too lean. A lot of people say it's a waste of money since the FI can compensate some for fuel mixture changes. Last I checked the flash costs about $150. If it were me I'd do the flash since it's recommended by HD. But, before you spend the money you need to decide if you will want a tuner in the future such as Power Vision or other. If you get a tuner you don't need the flash. A good self learning tuner like a Power Vision will compensate for most fuel mixture requirements. A tuner will cost you some where around $450 for self learning tuner. The Power Vision runs about $550. Hammer Performance recommends Power Vision http://hammerperf.com/xlfuelsystems.shtml#powervision and TTS Master Tune http://hammerperf.com/xlfuelsystems.shtml#tts. Harley also has a race tuner available which I believe is self learning. That info is a little vague but It'll give you a place to start.
