I'm putting mine there next mod. Thanks! I used to have my fuel pump and filter under the tank, when I had a fuel pump. I've got my breather filter below my air cleaner. a couple guys have told me thats where they put theirs, but damn, it looks like it would be just as bad as the original position on the BAK. Looks like a straight downhill run which should allow the oil to keep flowing out of the filter. can you tell me how the oil stays high, SMSgt?   Logged     2007 Road Star BAK Bub Jug Huggers   The administrator has disabled public write access. #254834 jamie99roadstar (User) As confused as a hungry baby in a topless bar.

Outta sight & works great.

I used fuel line to run down from the valve cover down the center tube in front of the battery and out to the side. Works great, out of the way and adds chrome Very minor potential for water to get in through the filter and down into your engine from the position under the tank and above the engine. That is why I like the down hill run nothing gets back up to the engine. Never much oil out so not really an issue.   Logged     Last Edit: 2010/02/05 15:14 By Crusierbob.     The administrator has disabled public write access. #254994 TROB (User) Gold Boarder Posts: 692 Re:Couple changes today - 2 Years, 3 Months ago   Crusierbob wrote: Mine is attached to the rear horn mount, nice little chrome filter.

I spent a couple hours messin with it tryint to find the right spot and just got sick of it.   Logged     2007 Road Star BAK Bub Jug Huggers   The administrator has disabled public write access. #255082 Greysnake (User) I'm so far behind I think I'm first. Platinum Boarder Posts: 7914 Re:Couple changes today - 2 Years, 3 Months ago   Looks good. I made a bracket and mounted mine just to the left of the air box. I clean it if it gets dirty with the recharge kit for my K&N.   Logged     06 Midnight Silverado *nothing shines like a star*   The administrator has disabled public write access.
