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

  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 o
ne 
  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, wh
at 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 seem
ed 
    to cause and damage. -I do not see any reason why you could not squee
ze 
    a bit to get more clearance.- It is a nice simple 
    system.

    problem

    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
