Cool filter. Now let me ask you, did you just plug that thing straight onto the carb and go? Or did you integrate it into the stock air intake?

I've been reading about the "Grampsizing" mod and was considering trying my hand at it, but the chopper in me thought it would be a hell of a lot easier to just ditch the OEM system altogether and slap a filter on the carb opening like my older bikes. But I feel like if the answer was that simple I would see a lot more people around here doing it. Any thoughts?

So I did manage to find this photo of the back of one of the HD hypers.

I'm guessing this one had been previously modified due to the drilled holes...but you can still get a sense of the pattern. Thoughts?

Hi Marco, you are usually a master at the English language and grammar...So I think your auto correct is to blame on the error. I think you meant "change the air filter and re-jet the carburetor".

Ooops! :-[
It's surely been a mistake.
But this time I am the one to blame, as I didn't use any auto corrector at all. And that's the result...
Thanx Gene.

I don't have any experience with the hyper charger, but like you I wouldn't think it would be all that hard to mount the HD model.  Can you find a pic of it anywhere?     I did like Marco and just modified my air box, installed a K&N, and rejetted the carb.   The specific mod I did was called "grampsizing"    But If you like the hyper charger see if you can get some pics.

I would think the carb throat could be different size--  so you might need to modify the hypercharger or make an adapter -- an the mounting brackets would most likely be different.   Depends on how handy you are in fabricating stuff like that.

Nope.
I preferred to change the air filter and reject the carburetor: that, together with a no-baffles custom exhaust, allowed ma-deuce to be faster and louder!  ;)

I emailed Kuryakyn directly and my suspicion was correct - the 9410 has been discontinued.

Any ideas?

Long story short, how difficult would it be to fit an H-D model of Kuryakyn charger onto our Vulcans?

Anyone tried it?

Someone correct me if I'm wrong - please correct me - but it seems the VN800 specific model of Kuryakyn (9410) has been discontinued. But they still make the same "standard" hyper for the Harleys, as well as the V-Star etc...

The mount can't be that specific, right?
