Question S/E Heavy Breather A/C pics

Like to see some pics, Black and Chrome both. I am mulling over getting one and want to know the pro's and con's. I live in WA where it's always sunny , so wondering how they do in the rain.

Are there other similar intakes that are better and cost about the same? Don't want to give up leg room, even though my legs are short to begin with. Maybe it wouldn't even matter on that issue.

Comments and recommendations are wanted.

Thanks all!

If you do get one, get the gloss black one. They also make socks that you can put over them for the rain.

I most likely will since I'm doing some blackening of the steed. Is the backing plate on those things visible and look okay? Who has the best pricing on them right now?

Thanks DAWG

The backing plate is visible and does look good.

Here's a view from the back and side. No problems with leg room either!

WORKD4IT, that is a sweet looking bike. How are you liking those double backs? I like the back end of your bike, what bag fillers are you using, Harley? Does removing that rear grab bar cause any frame flexing or problems?
