Whaddya think? hot little CC breather hose filter 2 Years, 6 Months ago  
About a week ago i picked up a breather hose filter that was cylinder shaped with a 3" diameter. Im in the process of re-routing the line away from my BAK. Well, after cutting a relief cut in the neck, it ended up being too big for the spot i was going to put it, and now I couldn't return it because i altered it

So I went looking for another one and came up with this hot triple chromed breather filter that the store said they just got in a couple days ago. They had 2 styles, one was SS mesh and the other was cotton fabric with metal screen. The only difference i could see was that they also had larger sizes, and on those, the SS one said "for track use only" and the fabric one did not. But the smaller filters didnt say anything like that.

I think it looks great, check it out. Let me know if you see any problems.

Is that going to be your key mod Check out the key mod stop at a truck stop and get a semi lug cover and some tacky putty dresses up the key area very nice. By the way while you are there get a 5" I think round visor for a mack speedo make a great speedo visor on our bikes too.
That is what I used works well
That is a MS1700 save a buck plan
