          Greg,
          Are these no longer made by TC? No more available? With TC's permission is there enough interest to get some made? I have on 2 of my bikes and would not mind it on all they are great.

            No, TC is no longer making them due to the fact life happens.

            I had someone here that was going to make some and had TC send him the info but once again, life happened so they never got built.

            I have one on my SG and love not having to deal with the mess changing the filter. I need one for the SF I just reaquired.

              Greg,
              I have a friend who is a machinist. I'll try and see if he would like to build a few and what the cost would be. I would like one for the '78 I need to start on.
