There really isn't anything that I like out there as far as air filter covers are concerned I like the retro look of the originals, had I thought of it at the time when I painted the bike I would have painted the covers pearl white - same as the 2 tone paint. Do your air filter covers stick out farther than original?

The right side air box is fed from the left side and the crossover is too restrictive to let the engine really breathe. The mod you are talking about won't work with an injected engine, unless you make your own new base for the right side.

- December 11, 2016, 09:17:34 AMI have been thinking of opening up my air intake by doing the Cadman mod. Problem is I can't find a decent air filter cover that I like. Any suggestions other than the Spectre or K & N 9" covers?
What if I do the Cadman mod but instead of going to the 9" filter and cover I just open the sides up on the filter covers and keep the original air filter? Any input? Would be nice not to chop up the original covers but can't find anything I like.
