Default Air Cleaner?
It is in fact a Jocker Machine Air Cleaner. I placed a blk cover over the brass nut in the middle of the AC to keep the blk look. It comes with a 4 in K&N Air Filter and it was in stock and cheaper at DennisKirk.

I borrowed another member's idea and swapped the springs for rubber stoppers. To my suprise the difference in ride quality is quite noticable.




I did this for 2 reasons. 1 I wanted to lower the seat to keep my *** from sliding around on it. 2) I want to be able to flip the seat up to access the stock seat mounting bolt to be able to quickly put on a passenger pad. I stole the stock passenger pad off my brother's Wide Glide. Flip it backwards and it mounts right up.

Looks great! Noticeably lower. What rubber stoppers did you use? And is the ride quality better or worse now?

From this thread...

I find it's noticably better. The rubber cuts down on vibration and I find you don't feel every little bump in the road anymore.
