S&S Cycle Air Boxes: Engineering Airflow for Maximum Performance
When it comes to feeding a Harley-Davidson engine the air it truly needs, few names carry as much authority as S&S Cycle. Since the company's founding, S&S has built its reputation on precision-engineered induction components, and their air boxes are a direct expression of that philosophy — blending hard-won racing science with the street-ready reliability that V-twin enthusiasts demand.
What Sets S&S Cycle Air Boxes Apart
S&S Cycle's approach to air boxes goes well beyond a simple filter housing. Every design is purpose-built to manage how air enters the engine, reduce turbulence at the inlet, and maximize the volume of clean, cool air reaching the combustion chamber. The result is a product line that meaningfully supports both everyday rideability and peak horsepower.
Three core product families define the S&S air box lineup:
- Stealth Air Cleaner Kits — The flagship of the S&S intake family. Increased filter area combined with a radiused inlet and unique S&S stinger allow smoother, faster airflow for more power. Kits include backplate, filter element, top cover, hardware, and instructions, and are available as a Stealth air cleaner or kitted with one of several stylish covers.
- Tuned Induction Air Cleaner Kits — A more aggressive performance option. The S&S Cycle Tuned Induction Air Cleaner uses two laser-cut and highly engineered tubes merged into a single collector and fed by a pair of high-flow air filters placed directly in an unobstructed air stream, with the end result being maximum performance and a stylish package.
- Super Stock Stealth Kits — A proven workhorse design. A built-in stinger cone directs air smoothly into the bore of the carburetor or EFI throttle body, reduces turbulence, and increases flow — for use with stock and S&S fuel system applications alike, and made in the U.S.A.
Broad Harley-Davidson Fitment Coverage
One of S&S Cycle's greatest strengths in the air box category is the sheer breadth of model coverage. Applications are available for most Harley-Davidson models, spanning decades of production. Fitment options cover the 2018–2024 Softail and 2017–2025 Touring M8 platforms, the 2007–2020 XL Sportster line, and many earlier carbureted Big Twin models going back to the 1980s. Finish choices — including gloss black, chrome, and carbon fiber — mean riders don't have to sacrifice visual personality for function.
Style and Function in Every Kit
S&S Cycle understands that an air box sits at the visual center of a Harley's engine bay. That's why iconic cover designs like the Teardrop and Mini Teardrop have remained signature shapes in the lineup for years — instantly recognizable as the hallmark of a performance-minded build. Whether a rider is building a subtle sleeper or a show-stopping custom, there's an S&S air box configuration that fits the vision.
For riders who want to unlock more from their engine's induction system, S&S Cycle air boxes represent one of the most direct, well-engineered upgrades available for the V-twin platform.
