Replacing Air Filter on Harley-Davidson Milwaukee 8 | K&N HD-1717 Upgrade | Budget Stage 1 Upgrade

The first thing most people do when they get a new motorcycle is upgrade the exhaust. But, a lot of times, only doing the exhaust upgrade makes the bike act a little...funky. To correct these issues, most people choose to do a full stage 1 upgrade and replace the air filter and tune for air fuel delivery.

    Drag S parts are not high quality, but Mustang does have thicker, wider seats, just have to look. I have a La Pera and you get used to being mindful of the exhaust, and spread your feet wider.

    I have a question for you, I have a M8 2017 and they run not as lean as a twin cam. There is about a 10% leeway on the M8. My question is if I put slip-ons with a high flow Air filter do I really need a tune? Remember I'm still using my M8 cover so the air flow would be a little less then say an full open Air filter. Thank you and nice videos

  • @FrensTimmerpens

    I mounted the 1717 filter also. But removed the front part with the grid in it. If the hole in the frontpart stays so tiny, the filter will do nothing, was my thought!

    Put a set of gen 1s on my 2023 Road Glide. With the cat having mysteriously fallen out, these Haters on an otherwise stock headpipe sound really good. Loud but not obnoxious until you really crack the throttle. Yes, there is a small bit of felt torque drop off, but at the upper end of the RPM range it really pulls. Noticeable but not drastic. An S&S 475C will be going in once the warranty is up. :) Currently stock air filter, but I have a stock replacement K&N that needs to go on. Hoping the less restrictive filter media helps that low end a little.

    I love the Cobra Neighbor Haters; however, without changing the headers, you are only getting maybe 40% of the sound, i threw on the Cobra true duals with my Neighbor Haters and wow, the bike came alive and so did the sound. The bike is a 2021 Street Glide. As far as your statement about Loud pipes save lives, thats BULL SHIT!

    I put these on my Indian Challenger. I had the Cobra Scallop slip ons. These are a bit louder, but a noticeable deeper throaty tone. What I like about the neighbor haters is that they are not mid life crisis I am compensating for something loud. For me these are perfect.
