Does it work. I mean will it reduce the pressure too much in the supply cos its tighter than the stock fly screen ?
Thanks in advance.

Cool.
Srinath.

I've been running one for over 500 miles. No issues.

Anyone running one for longer than that? Your opinions?

You know, Joseph, I never thought of that. Yes, you could install the original screen with Mike's filter/cooler part. Just be careful when you clean the screen, that there will be a good bit of oil in there to run all down the side of the engine.
