The air cleaner looks great but the breather hoses were not well designed and a pain to install.
Like John said the air cleaner looks great. I got around the breather hose problem by using the original Harley breather hose and coating it with WD40 to get it in the hole. The whole original breather hose fit perfect in the air cleaner base. I will take it apart in a couple weeks to make sure it stayed put. One thing I didn't like is where the air filter fits to go through the mount there is nothing to seal in that area to keep dirt out that will work its way around and get pulled into the throttle body. I solved that problem by putting an o-ring around that part of the air cleaner snorkle and when I tightened down the 3 air filter screws it sealed.
I love the look and ease of installation. i plan on having the fins painted to match. I can't wait to get that more custom look.
I did use the hose from the later model air cleaner that I had previously installed. The hoses from my original air cleaner would not have worked so I see why you provided the hose kit.
