Side mount filter installed
09/01/07 at 16:00:51

Here is what I came up with.

I used an 1 1/2 " black PVC P trap, this is the kind used for rough plumbing, not the white stuff under your sink. The flange and the threaded end are both about 2 1/4"

I cut the rubber from the old air filter and sawed off the threaded end of the PVA, it was a near perfect fit, tight, but it worked fine.
Here is a link to a picture.

I've seen this done on other bikes and just liked the look. Cheap too, total cost was $5.50

Tell us what it does in the rain though, I was nervous about a good rain dousing my cone and clogging it up or letting water in, and it's still behind the carb body, but I haven't had any trouble with it...

At least that's what the cone shape filter people say of the ones for HD's. And they're stuck out in the elements.
