I am hoping that I can use the cover already there for the EFI cable/plug and just install the air cleaner on top of that cover...





It has double gasket... but I have not found photos of the back of the RSD Air Cleaner... it will all depend on the shape... I guess there is only one way to find out...

Or how about an Arlen Ness?

I did look at that one.  Can use any derby cover.  At the end I liked more the others listed above.

I have the Ness Derby Sucker on the Evo. You can use any derby cover with it. I have the same derby cover on it that I have on the primary, timer cover, etc. Looks really good to have everything match... like it's a custom bike...

I went with the RSD platinum cut 7 spoke Speed a/c.

I thought that the 7 spoke design went with my wheels a little better than the others.
You have the same wheels so it's probably worth a thought!!



I was also worried about the electronics being exposed once the stock a/c was removed (which incidentally I hated!) and considered trying the HD part that you're looking at. The RSD a/c covers all of that stuff though so there was no need for it  ;D

That is great to know, thank you!  I will place the order today.

Exchanged emails with Rick Preuss from Roland Sands Design (I was not aware that Performance Machine and RSD are one and the same... no wonder the base of the air cleaners looked the same!)... anyway, he told me that there are Outer Kits available... so later down the road if I want to change the face for a Clarity look I can do so...

Order placed for the Turbine A/C with Dan @ Direct Harley Parts.

Wachuko - so, what have you decided and do you have any pics - I am in the process in getting a parts order for a friend that has a new 12 CVO RG - Maple - He wants Lowers AND the speaker kit.   LSHD has a great sale going with free shipping and 20% off list - time is now - however, this breather issue has got us stumped..

New to this board - came over here from hdforums.com - suggested by another member - great info here.

Thanks to all

Welcome!

I went with a different air cleaner (RSD) to be able to accomodate the lowers and (in the future) speakers.



Your friend will need to figure out which air cleaner he likes best, many to choose from.  From the stock SE H-D to many in the aftermarket world.

I realize this is very old but here goes. I just bought the rsd turbine. It wouldn't fit on my 2002 flhrsei. Talked to Roland sands. Said they couldn't guarantee fitment on my cvo. I'm bummed. The breather were 1/4 inch too long and the throttle body holes were 1/4 inch too low. Any suggestions?
