True, but I also have a Street Glide and I definitely need a lift for working on that one! The 360s are so easy to move around. I just slide them around the garage when they are in the way.

I started yanking the paper off the filter. That is no easy task. The whole thing wants to deform when I do it. Frogman, yours looks so clean! How did you get the glue off from the factory. Did you soak it in something? I have carb rebuild kits in the mail, as well as a bunch of other stuff...

Alright, I have been doing a bit more reading. Perhaps I will save those Pods for one of the other bikes, and rebuild the stock air filters for this bike. I see the green and the red Uni filter sheets on Amazon, which are the best for this application? Are they cleanable and reusable, or do you...

Hello all, I've read many great discussions here and picked up a good amount of tips and advice. I decided it is time to register, because this project is big, and I need the help! Here's the scoop. My first bike was a 1974 CL360 that I picked up back in 2003 when I was 16. I crashed it a...
