On the Big Dog stock air cleaner cover there is a piece of metal that is held with three little screws. Kind of curved and faces the front. Was wondering why its there? Can it be removed for better air flow? Just wondering.

bdm has a louvered replacement and some have replaced it with perforated stainless steel mesh. either does help with air flow but also lets more rain in.

i have the louvered.

I'm on board with woodbutcher and 05 old dog. Even if you don't ride in the rain you end up getting caught out there at some point. That screen looks great but I rather have the weather guard protection. I have the louvered replacement also. Just saying.

Putting the e3226 k&n filter on when it gets here.
Would it be a benefit to replace the solid cover with the
screen on the air filter housing as far as performance goes? :choppersmiley:
