The S&S Cycle High-Flow Air Cleaner Kit, part number 170-0478, is an air intake upgrade built around a high-flow design intended to improve how the engine breathes. A radiused inlet with an S&S stinger is designed to smooth airflow as it enters the intake, reducing restriction along the way.

The kit uses a durable die-cast aluminum backplate for a sturdy base, paired with a washable and reusable filter element that can be cleaned and reused rather than replaced on every service interval. A top cover is included as part of the kit, and all necessary installation hardware is provided so the parts you need are in one package.

At 4 lb, the kit is a lightweight way to update the air intake on a Harley-Davidson V-twin. Riders looking for a simple intake upgrade with a reusable filter and included hardware will find the kit's combination of airflow design and practical construction a straightforward choice.

For off-road / closed-course race use only.

A timeless classic

As Harley Davidson as leather jackets and loud pipes, these things will never go out of style. Built like a tank and capable of flowing more air than you'll ever need. What's not to love? If you're wondering if this is the right air cleaner, yes, it is.

Added Performance & Classic Slick, Sleek Look

The understated good looks of this air cleaner kit packs a powerful punch in added performance for your bike and is what makes the S&S Super a classic. An air cleaner kit gets you only half the way to added performance, clearly you need to accompany it with a fuel management system or tuner so your engine can optimally process the increased airflow. When I installed the S&S Super, which was easy and straightforward (also see the Reveille video on this), I noticed a meaningful pick up in torque and horsepower. It was like I was riding a different bike, one that was faster and more responsive. No fancy bling with this air cleaner kit, just timeless and classic beauty and performance.

Looks and works great!

S&S is a classic air cleaner and there's a reason for that. It looks great on my Deuce and adds to the overall look of the bike, IMHO. Very well made with all the parts necessary to install and very easy to do. Very happy with the purchase and the look of the product.

Quality fitment.

Everything I had expected. Easy to install. Extremely well made and definitely lives up to the tear drop air cleaner reputation.
