Jim,=0A=0A- 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...=0A=0ASmokey=0AHR2=0A=0A

=0ASubject: Re: Airfilter problem=0A=0A=0AHey Tom,=0ABeen doin
g some research on filters.- Your part number was close but I came up wit
h RB-0910 which is 5 inches high, and an RB-0900 which is 4 inches in heigh
t.- Do you think the 4 inch high one would work better, i.e., less contac
t with cowl and starter?=0AI 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?=0AI wish my cowl was off so I could take some measurements.
- I just put it back on Sunday after the annual inspection.=0AJim Stone

---- I had a similar set up on my second Harmon. -I used a conica
l 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 poin
t of contact. -It also tended to touch the cowling but never seemed to ca
use 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.=0A-=0ATom Martin=0A

m=0ASubject: Airfilter problem=0A-=0AHR guys,=0AAs per John
Harmon's recommendation, I have been using a UNI filter UP-6300 ast motorcy
cle 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 wear
ing where the cuff slides over the Y-valve.- I am using John's intake Y v
alve 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.=0AThanks
