S&S Cycle Teardrop Air Cleaner Kit - 170-0435C - Harley-Davidson

The S&S Cycle Teardrop Air Cleaner Kit is an intake upgrade built around a classic die-cast aluminum teardrop cover. Riders choose it for the traditional look of the teardrop shape combined with a noticeable increase in airflow over a stock air cleaner, helping the engine breathe more freely.

The cover is roughly 85% of the original S&S teardrop size, giving it a refined profile. Inside, the Stealth backplate is made from synthetic polymers and is designed to reduce heat transfer to the intake charge, so cooler, denser air reaches the cylinders. Paired with the S&S stinger inlet, the kit is intended to deliver smooth air delivery and improved induction efficiency.

The filter element is washable, which makes routine maintenance straightforward. This kit is designed for Harley-Davidson motorcycles equipped with S&S Stealth air cleaner mounting points, and it offers a solid starting point for riders who want more V-twin performance and a classic S&S look.

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