K&N Performance Air Intake Adds Horsepower to Your Harley-Davidson® Glide

8 Dec 2016

The 57-1122 performance kit includes all that is needed for instant power

One of the most unique and intriguing of the 1970s biker movies was Electra Glide in Blue. Some would say that the diminutive actor Robert Blake was the star, but in my mind the title character stole the show. The Electra Glide has become one of the most iconic Harleys® of all time, and it's not just because of a movie made in the era of bell bottoms!

If you want to take your Glide or Road King to the next level, it’s time for you to bolt on one of the most impressive intakes on the market. The K&N 57-1122 performance intake can deliver some of the most substantial power gains your FL series Harley-Davidson® can get from a simple to install accessory.

The clean design of the 57-1122 intake enhances the look of the Harley FL line

Let’s take a look at the numbers. The K&N dynamometer showed an impressive estimated gain of nearly 13 horsepower when the 57-1122 was bolted to a stock 2008 Electra Glide Classic. That kind of estimated gain in power is usually only achieved with expensive internal engine modifications. The intake’s performance magic doesn’t stop there. The same dyno run showed an estimated torque gain of well over 14.5 foot-pounds.

We really want you to click on the dyno chart link on the 57-1122’s product page. You’ll see that the gains in both horsepower and torque are consistently and substantially higher than the stock intake over the entire RPM range. As you undoubtedly know, that means that the overall rideability of the bike will be fantastic – not only on wide-open freeway runs, but around town as well.

Installation of the K&N 57-1122 intake usually takes less that 90 minutes

So the performance numbers are impressive, but the added bonus is that the 57-1122 is a beautiful addition to your Harley. K&N’s designers have created an intake kit that bolts to the throttle body with a billet aluminum mounting plate and then sweeps forward with an intake tube that is finished impeccably. All of the hardware for the simple installation comes in the intake's package.

Of course, the intake is completed with a K&N high flow filter. The filter incorporates layers of oil-impregnated cotton gauze that is free-flowing yet offers excellent filtration. The filter, which is backed by K&N’s famous 10-Year/Million Mile Limited Warranty, is fully washable and reusable. You will never need to buy another air filter for your Harley.

The 57-1122 is made in the USA and is fully legal in all 50 states. Browse through the application list below to match the intake to your ride, and consult K&N’s online application tool for all of your filter needs. Then go watch Electra Glide in Blue!
