Thanks. Your bike looks great.
Yeah, looking for cool air and resoultion of crankcase puke. The S&S AC I have pulls air mostly from the motor side and the outboard openings in the rear often are obstructed by my leg. So not so much cool air. Also, I've an SE backplate and the location of the cc vents is so far from the TB on that design that the oil in the vented vapor just drips down the backplate -- eventually onto my bike. (Thanks go to Ryan Wimmer for that understanding.) The Cobra design has openings located in the extended TB tube, so puky (sp?) motors like mine should not lead to a messy right saddlebag. Do you have any cc vapor puke issues w/ the Powerflo?
Thanks again.

So I'm mostly responding to test my effort to change my sig pic, but I've decided I'm going to try the Powerflo. See video here for nice discussion from Cobra https://www.denniskirk.com/cobra/chr...prd/185178.sku
edit: failed effort - drives me nuts cause that's old paint

got the Powerflow
So I got the Powerflow. Here's a pic.
Definitely draws cool air, as can be shown by the cool feel of the cover after riding in big heat. My other covers that are open only on the motor side always were hot to touch. Also, like naked applications, you can hear the air being drawn into the motor.
Sorta big. What u think?
It does not come with the needed hoses for connecting the cc ventilation. It should! It requires the factory units.
