Vance and Hines Falcon Air Intake - Harley Milwaukee-Eight Touring
About Vance and Hines
Vance & Hines has been building motorcycle exhaust since 1979 and has run factory-backed drag and King of the Baggers programs that feed straight back into its street products. Systems like the Torquer and the 2-into-1 designs are engineered around real dyno work, not just sound — which is why they show up on so many tuned Milwaukee-Eight and Twin Cam builds.

This intake is designed to dramatically increase airflow, leading to improved power and throttle response. Crafted with a hand TIG-welded 304 stainless steel intake tube and a CNC-machined billet aluminum backing plate, it offers both performance and a striking visual upgrade.

Unlock Your Milwaukee-Eight's Power
The Vance & Hines Falcon Air Intake is more than just an aesthetic upgrade; it's a foundational performance modification for your Milwaukee-Eight. By increasing the volume of clean, cool air entering your engine, it sets the stage for significant power gains.
