I just picked up one of these much cheaper than PM or RSD and looks awesome. I already had the SE back plate. The Exotx filter and cover were $189 shipped. I am trying to find a bolt cover for the banjo bolts.

I have the S&S, as well, on my 03 Road King. I have always loved the style of the S&S air cleaner. Have had S&S carbs on my shovel and a Softail. My Road King is fuel injected but it still seems to work great.

I am also looking to upgrade the A/C soon.
I'm glad to see some S&S mentioned, but they seem to get less "love" than the SE and Ness Stage 1s. Is there a noticable loss of performance from the S&S or is it just an asthetic issue?

Read the reviews on the Doherty if you're looking for performance in a useful RPM range.

The June issue of American Iron is the latest one I've read, on page 58.

I went with the HD simple round cover, I did not and still do not appreciate the open filter look on my ride but I hated the football even more, I have a K&N filter similar to the big sucker and a SE wrinkle black base unit. The cover could be powder coated and any of a number of Derby Covers installed to dress it out.
