air filter

Hi,,,

I have a Road King Classic 2008.

I am hopefully installing a V&H Oval slip on, and will be getting a PCiii. I also plan to upgrade the airfilter.

Can I install a K&N air filter on the stock airfilter assembly or do I need to change the whole assembly?

I would change the whole assy. to get a true high flow a/c.

Not much of a difference if any at all just changing the air filter. A free flow breather kit(SE or Big Sucker), along with the V&H ovals and PC III will give you you're stage 1 upgrade and really wake up the bike.

Fuelmoto offers the PC V for the 2008. They also offer an AC kit with a K&N filter. I too recommend you change the whole kit as well as going to the PCV over the PC III.

The second time I reinstalled the velocity stack it stayed in. I probably did something wrong the first time.
