Motorcycle Air Filter - Wimmer Custom Cycle

In-Your-Face Intake

By Ernie Lopez, Photography by Ernie Lopez

In this dirty world in which we ride in, we need clean air to pass through the intake of our bikes to keep them running at their best. There are a lot of air filters out there that work well but tend to lack in style. Wimmer Custom Cycle has the means to do both, good filtering of air while adding some cool style to your bike. With so many different styles and setups to choose from there is something for everyone's bike. All of the Wimmer intake components are made from solid 6061 billet aluminum, and manufactured right here in the USA. The Wimmer System is based on its Velocity Stacks Assembly (VSA) for standard carburetor mounts like CV, S&S, Mikuni, and also for fuel-injected models as well. Once you have the right VSA for your model you can build an air intake to fit your bike and style.
