Vance and Hines VO2 Onyx Open-Face Air Intake - Harley Touring & Softail
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.
The Vance and Hines VO2 Onyx intake system is engineered to deliver both performance gains and a dark, aggressive aesthetic to your Harley Touring or Softail motorcycle. Featuring a CNC-machined billet aluminum cover with an open-face design, this intake increases critical airflow to your engine. It's a key upgrade for riders looking to maximize their V-twin's potential.
