Hey Smokey,
Did you happen to pull your cowl and check which filter you have?
Thanks,
Jim

Jim,
I am 99% sure this is the one. I will pull my cowling and
confirm it next week, hope it helps.

Smokey,
If you happen to have that K&N model number, you might
save me from ordering the wrong one.
Thanks,
Jim

Jim,
I'm using a K&N cone filter on my Harmon intake
w/bypass, 3.5 inch top. Works great with my Skytech starter and clears
the cowl with 2" to spare. Suprisingly, K&N had compettive prices...

Hey Tom,
Been doing some research on filters. Your part
number was close but I came up with RB-0910 which is 5 inches high, and
an RB-0900 which is 4 inches in height. Do you think the 4 inch high
one would work better, i.e., less contact with cowl and starter?
I also found some cone shapes which are about 5
inches high but have 3 1/2 inch diameter top, perhaps that would work,
what do you think?
I wish my cowl was off so I could take some
measurements. I just put it back on Sunday after the annual inspection.

I had a similar set up on my second
Harmon. I used a conical K&N filter that had a bit of an offset in the
attach flange. Part # RB 091. It did touch the starter and I put a
big gob of RTV at the point of contact. It also tended to touch the
cowling but never seemed to cause and damage. I do not see any reason
why you could not squeeze a bit to get more clearance. It is a nice
simple system.

HR guys,
As per John Harmon's recommendation, I have been
using a UNI filter UP-6300 ast motorcycle filter. Not only do I not
like the looks of the thing but it lays on the inside of the cowl and
has to deform a bit to do that, it also is wearing where the cuff slides
over the Y-valve. I am using John's intake Y valve and the angle of the
filter side may not be quite right. Has anyone had this problem and or
have a solution? Perhaps going to a K&N filter will do it, any model
numbers would help my search for a solution.
Thanks,
Jim Stone
