I did mine after work tonight. I was wondering what youuse to cover the black rubber tubes that run into the inside of the filter. The black rubber takes away from the looks some in my opinion. Tell us what you used & how to attach it.
Thanks in advance for the info.
Ride Safe,
Mike

RE: new air cleaner mod....
i still have the tubes, maybe they just dont show in the picture.....they mae aftermarket breathers but i've heard they sometimes drip a little oil....

I added the HD top cover tonight (it adds chrome to the top of the air cleaner up to the tank) so I had to take apart the entire air cleaner including my backing plate. Those rubber tubes actually collect and dump combustion gasses / oil into the air cleaner? If you take them off there are nipples buried inside the tubes and the service manual says a flutter valve will not work right? The other option is to get a chrome backer but the tubes are still exposed. Deuce it appears you took yours off and if so what did you fill the hole in with and how is your bike running?

I use a cheap old shower cap. You can get them at CVS or similar for about $3.00 to $5.00 for three of them.[sm=smiley20.gif]
