Default Arlen Ness big Sucker
Does anyone know if the Arlen Ness BS is available for 08 touring models? If so, what is the part number?

Nothing for the '08 Touring bikes from K&N, Arlen Ness or Doherty.... I am waiting for anything that uses the stock cover - the Screamin Eagle filter is not the way I want to go.

If you don't want the screamin eagle filter why not just throw it away and put a K&N in? The mechanic at my shop recommended I run the screamin eagle filter until it starts getting dirty, then throw it out and put the K&N in. The filters will fit right now.

That is exactly what I did, I installed the SE and as soon as the filter needs replacing I will change to theK&N. I need to paint the backing plate or get the chrome replacement which also isnt available yet from Harley..........

Don't know how it can fit when the 08's have a larger throttle body.
