Harley-Davidson V-Rods with K&N Oil Filter Get Top Tier Protection

The KN-174B is a spin-on/wrench-off design with a 17mm nut on the top that is pre-drilled so the filter can be safety-wired if desired.

"Win on Sunday, sell on Monday" is an old refrain that still follows competitors and spectators from American motorsports venues to the street. Harley-Davidson has boldly lived this adage, garnering two NHRA championships with race bikes powered by the superbike-derived, water-cooled, dual-overhead cam, 1,130cc Revolution engine co-designed by Porsche Engineering.

The KN-174B filter can handle high flow rates and pressures, and its pre-lubed nitrile rubber seal ensures the canister will seat securely.

Harley's VRSC (V-Twin Racing Street Custom) line is produced as a platform for drag racers, and a competitor for American and Japanese muscle bikes, but is ultimately a distinctive street motorcycle. Many of these eye-catching examples are on the road today including the VRSCA and VRSCB V-Rods, the stylish Screamin' Eagle (a first from Harley's Custom Vehicle Operations in 2005), and the current hot-rod inspired Night Rod, sporting a black frame, black and chrome engine, Brembo Brakes, slotted aluminum disk wheels, and a color-matched fairing.

A limited run Screamin' Eagle tribute model was built to celebrate the V-Rod's second consecutive NHRA championship in 2007. In 2008 the VRSCAW V-Rod's Revolution engine was increased to 1,250cc, This iteration has continued as the standard for the line, including the Night Rod Special, Night Rod Muscle and V-Rod Muscle.

Street applications of race engineering generally present higher-performance requirements and support systems, and K&N stepped up to help protect these revolutionary engines with the KN-174B Replacement Oil Filter.

The KN-174B can handle high flow rates and pressures, and its pre-lubed nitrile rubber seal ensures the canister seats securely. Its resin-impregnated filter media can trap up to 99% of harmful contaminants and can handle all types of oils, including synthetics and synthetic blends. It is a spin-on/wrench-off design with a 17mm nut on the top that is pre-drilled so the filter can be safety-wired if desired.

With its sturdy, thick-wall canister construction, anti drain-back valve to protect against dry starts, plus bypass and pressure relief valves, the KN-174B is up to the job of being part of the Revolution.
