Kuryakyn Alley Cat Air Cleaner- Kawasaki VN1700 Vulcan/ Voya

[gsinclair]

I am looking to others pros and cons that have installed the Kuryakyn Alley Cat Air Cleaner- Kawasaki VN1700 Vulcan/ Voyager. What is used for the back plate where the old cleaner was? I just installed the vance and hines Pro pipe. I already have installed the cobra F2000 air/fuel processor. I am running the K&N air filter right know but am thinking the engine might need more air. If I do this where can I find left side air cover plate for 2011 Kawasaki voyager . Thanks gene

Looking at the kuryakyn site, it says it comes with backing plate, but if I am reading it right each side costs about $325, seems like a lot of money for probably no real world difference. Maybe try running just the kn filters in stock. I did like the look of the alley cat though.

I believe the backing plate there talking about is for the right side so the air cleaner can be installed. I was a little confused my self. You would think for that kind of money all parts would be included to complete both sides.

I'm wondering since they dont say left or right side it probably is the same for both?
