I like mine. And ya I think it looks better than stock. It's My ride and I could care less what others think. Just the same as you feel about the **** you put on your ride.
The guy was looking for some advice, not your opinion. Just sayin'
Radudel, glad you got it figured out.

Actually you're right! It looks great on the bike and as long as the combination with the exhaust and the SE fuel management work much more better than the stock I am satisfied. But I can still wait for any opinion regarding the issue.

I will try to replace the diaphragm with kit the one (P/N 8580) from Kuryakyn. I am still waiting for an answer from Dennis Kirk. I wrote them about the issue two days ago but no reply yet...

Dennis Kirk isn't going to help you. They just sell, warranty is though the manufacturer. Go straight to Kuryakyn.

Actually I just received a letter from Dennis Kirk and they are going to replace the diaphragm under the warranty. Thanks!

Actually, though not my style, I don't think the Hyperchargers are ugly. Now unreliable, I can easily see. Also, you forgot "inefficient", which, relatively speaking, they are.
