    Hey thanks for your video 👍🏽, should I have to tune the bike after installing the air clear??

    • @motorhead883_8
      @motorhead883_8  4 года назад +1

      So to get the maximum out of it yes if not then its like runny the stock filter just air goes in easier. The sensor will detect how much air is coming in and if you have o2 sensors then it will tell the computer to adjust the fuel to air ratio. Whe. You tune it us going to use every bit of air available and allow way more gas for more power. Essentially how its supposed to work. I tuned it and I was able to rev a little higher and my max speed also went up. I haven't maxed it out now but before it maxed at about 100 I think

    hey did you find any rain sock for that filter?

    @lifeischeesy Год назад

    Why would you put the magnetic tray on the tank??? Not only can it scratch the tank, but the hardware that falls could scratch the parts underneath.
    Well made video, but that just annoys the hell out of me haha. Ride safe!

    Did you have to use extra washers for the spacers? Mine is quiet a bit short and doesn’t sit tight on the block

    • @motorhead883_8
      @motorhead883_8  5 лет назад

      fredz6 in the video i showed, i just used the spacer a washer and another washer. So the order should be cylinder head, spacer, washer, filter bracket, and another spacer and the breather bolt through all that

    Which socket did you use to remove the nuts at the bottom of the original filter near the engine?

    • @motorhead883_8
      @motorhead883_8  4 года назад +1

      I think it was something like a 14mm might be different depending on model year

      Yes you can definitely feel a difference, what I notice that gave the most difference though was the fuel pack by vance and hines

      Hey, so i dont have a video update but i still have the same filter on the bike, its been now almost 3 years and it is a bit dirty. I have not had any issues with it and you can remove it to clean it. I am in the desert area of el paso and it does a good good job at cleaning the air.

    Hi there is it ok to block those two breathers?

    • @motorhead883_8
      @motorhead883_8  4 года назад

      KILLING hey sorry i haven’t been able to get on able to reply. But i would not recommend blocking it since its what allows for pressures and bloby to eacape. If you want they sell a kit where you attach a hose and it breaths to the atmosphere
