I like the open look. I went with the PM Supergas on my FB and the Arlen Ness smooth round open a/c on my Street Glide.

Default AC Cover

I have a SE AC. Covered with 29153-07 and PC-ed it. Its the smallest cover you can get. It gives a open look. Also it has a cut-away bottom design.

Ya or Na?



You are on the right track. See this thread which shows a really classy homemade set up:

Well, since we're on topic, and since I have gotten no responses thus far to my question, perhaps someone on this thread could share an experience with the Arlen Ness set up on the links below:

i went with open and use outwears if it rains. i was going to try the cd look but was thinking of light scribe cd and then you can have your own design. then i saw lots of companies that sell covers or will make your design. I think they do clean up the look.

I have the SE on mine with a chrome round cover. Got caught in a real gully washer a few months back in Arkansas and had to pull over and let it dry out cause it got so wet that the motor was suckin water and didn't want to run anymore.

I guess the upside was I probably got rid of some carbon in my combustion chambers
