Just installed it on my new 2013 Wide Glide looks sweet

 

Yup looks good. I've got the black one.

 

I've got one similar on my '03. I'm hoping that it will fit the S&S G carb now as I really liked the look. In the sig pic it was on the stock CVO carb.

 

Looks great!
I sure can see why they call it the "heavy breather", looks hungry for air!

 

very nice! Cannt wait to get rid of the football. By next spring things will look much different for me, just have to be patient for now.

 

Anybody know what kinda increase this filter setup gives compared to the round screamin eagle a/c

 

I've always like those, just worried what would happen if you get caught in a heavy rain with that setup.

 

Hi,

The heavy breather the one thing on my bike and back and forwards with all the time, want it dont want it want it dont want it

I run the se stage 1 kit open and got caught in major rain for about an hr of riding, it got pretty wet, the bike still cruised well on the freeway but if gave it a heap of throttle it coughed and spluttered a bit

When got home took it off and there was bit of water around throttle body, took bike out next day to give good run, no worries

Thanks
Mirrmu

 

I don't think heavy rain will have an effect unless it's a REALLY long period of time. The oiled K&N filter is going to repel most of the rain... so unless your bike is part submarine...

I found an ad on ebay, they claim 10hp increase. I think that's laughable

One of the biggest advantages I've found is the extra clearance for my legs. I'm only 5'7" tall. With the stock football or S&S air cleaner, my right leg has to really bow around to reach the foot peg (I have forward controls). With the HB, my leg can sit behind it and it's a much more comfortable riding position.

 

In the early stages of modding my bike I had it dynoed once with the standard ham can ac. I upgraded to the heavy breather and had it touched tuned as the HD tech called it and it made exactly 3.7 additional hp and tq increase as well, but that number escapes me.
