Arlen Ness 15-Spoke Inverted Series Chrome Air Filter Harley Davidson XL Sportster 1991-Up

Arlen Ness was the world's foremost motorcycle customizer. He has done more for the business of customizing motorcycles than any other person or company in existence. Starting out of his garage in the 1960's with money he earned as a semi-professional bowler, Arlen bought his first Harley. Armed with no more than a spray gun and a dream, he created his first chopper. That chopper launched a customizing career that in turn helped launch an entire industry. Today, Arlen Ness Motorcycles is an international brand sold in every continent of the world.

This is what we do; it's our purpose our passion, and our way of life for over 50 years. We spend every day creating, testing, and delivering the best quality motorcycle products available. Arlen Ness has something for every angle of your motorcycle to enhance both form and function.

This eliminates the need for any external hoses or hardware for a virtually closed loop system.
• Radius air inlet for unobstructed airflow
• Specially designed breather bolts are hidden under billet covers for a clean look
• Eliminates oil blow-bye issues associated with M8 engines by directing any excess breather oil back into the engine
