Default Torn between which air cleaner style to go with

Want to switch out the stock AC but am torn between the SE heavy breather look or round Big Sucker look. Any thoughts?

not familiar with the big sucker, but what i like most about the heavy breather is that it doesn't collide with my leg, like the stock football (on my '06) did...

Big sucker! On my list anyway.

I think the heavy breather is too big and looks out of place to me. I like the small round look better.

I have the SE Heavy Breather on mine. If I were to do it again I think i would go with the round one. The Heavy Breather blocks the view of the front cylinder and changes the look. It works though.

ahhhhh ya know what Maclugie you might have just solved the dilemma... I'm adding a 2" tank lift this weekend so if the heavy breather blocks the cylinder that would kind of defeat the purpose of me adding the lift to show it off ya know.

i have the HD stage 1 backplate with a K&N filter which provides the same air flow as the big sucker. See Below.

The big sucker is from Arlen Ness right?

Heavy breather. I have heard that some have had problems with the big sucker.

I went with this one. It does not get in the way of my leg and I liked the look of it. You can get it in Chrome or black.
