Looks great, my wife loves the bike and its also faster then my 117 low rider st! I just can’t justify the cost of the stack. It rides amazing, clutch super easy, brakes are great and the handling also!
I guess that would depends how you sit. I sit a little back on the seat and it doesn’t catch my knee. Not sure if there is a low profile intake available on the market right now.
A subtle difference in performance, about 5%ish… not sure if it’s a mental thing (knowing that the velocity stack is installed) but the Nightster is a beast as it is especially in Sport mode 😎. Soundwise, not so much being that I still have the stock exhaust on.

I can confirm. My best friend has a Low rider ST and my Nightster special can dust him
I was left in awe how easy it was to just pull it off at the start...
yeah it’s crazy how they designed it 🤦🏻
Does the new intake catch your knee/leg like the old one? Do they make a low profile unit that doesn't?

So it doesn't change the sound much if at all? I don't want an overbearing intake noise.
not much if anything, none at all as far as sound
Did you need to tune? I’ve ask Harley and I don’t know why they say I need a tune if I replace that.
No tuning at all, bike has been running fine and better. Simple plug & play (or ride in this case)
Are these reverse thread?
as far as the 3 bolts? no, they set clockwise
Do you notice improvement to the airflow after the install?😊

@@OGAdam mine is coming in this week. I bought the gray one. Dealer won’t let me bring it home cause of the handlebar recall.
@@OGAdam Wonder what it will sound like with straight pipes?
@@Johnclark300 I’m just waiting patiently for the new exhausts to come out, I didn’t want to jump on the S&S train too quickly.
@@OGAdam gotcha
Mesh seems awful open to catch dust/small particles/rain.
this is why there is an air filter
