Default Need a new air cleaner

Since HD decided to take a step backwards with the 08 SE a/c (no breather tubes) I am in search of a new air cleaner. Tired of all of the oil blowoff. My saddlebag front and side cover are covered in oil. Thinking about the Heavy Breather but open for suggestions. Don't wanna break the bank though.

I use the Arlen Ness Big Sucker II and really like it. Flows air very well and of course it is reusable!

Shows breather tubes on the HD website but I guess that is not accurate nor would it make sense to&nbsp\\;omit them.

Get the Doherty Power Pacc. Costs a little more but more than worth the difference vs the cheap cast chinese crap&nbsp\\;IMO

I have a ness big sucker sittin on the table in the garage,went back to factory a/c. It didn't leak oil,but when I opened it up the oil was sitting inside at the bottom of the filter. Think I'll try K&amp\\;N in the factory box.

I am running the new Fuelmoto setup. It has the HD SE backplate and a KN filter. There are hoses to route the oil gas right down the intake. Contact Jamie. Maybe he can help you mod what you have to his setup.
