Looks like the Indian cover that Woodcarver has on his bike: http://www.autoandmotorcycle.com/photogallery/showphoto.php/photo/2913/title/im000798/cat/500

I think his is an actual Indian piece.

Starklite might be able to help you.  They do lots of Indian parts.  http://www.starklite.com/

Ahh... teardrop/war bonnet.


The Indian War Bonnet Air filter housing seems to be a popular mod. Some folks have made adapter plates themselves, but this seems to be a lot of trouble and most of us don't have access to the necessary equipment to cut and weld plate.

SCP has an adapter that works with Kawasaki 1500/1600 FI models and should work with the Indian War Bonnet and most other aftermarket air boxes. Additionally, J&P Cycles has the Indian style swept housings for sale at about half the price of those you will find on ebay etc. I haven't adapted one of these yet but will be working on it.

Never seen a reverse "War Bonett" cover. Do not think you could have one on each side.
