See the Power: Why the Vance & Hines Insight Air Intake is a Game Changer for Your Harley

If you’re a Harley rider in Eastern NC, you know that performance isn't just about what’s under the hood—it’s about how your bike breathes and how it looks while doing it. At Wood Cycles, we’ve seen a lot of air breathers come through the shop, but the Vance & Hines Insight Air Intake Kit (Chrome) is in a league of its own.

Here’s why this specific kit is a top-tier choice for your 2008-2016 Touring model, 2016-17 Softail, or Dyna Low Rider.

1. Performance You Can See (Literally)

The standout feature of the Insight series is the clear polycarbonate outer cover. For the first time, you can actually see the internal workings of your intake. It’s a mechanical masterpiece protected by a sleek, laser-cut billet aluminum cover that gives your bike a modern, high-tech edge.

2. The "Force™ Velocity Stack" Advantage

Beauty is great, but at Wood Cycles, we care about the numbers on the Dyno. This kit features an integrated Force™ Velocity Stack.

• What does that mean for you? It smooths out the air as it enters your engine, reducing turbulence and significantly increasing power. Whether you’re merging onto US-70 or pulling away from a stoplight in downtown Goldsboro, you’ll feel the difference in throttle response.

3. Built to Last with High-End Hardware

Vance & Hines didn't cut corners on the details. The kit is assembled with stainless ARP hardware. If you know performance racing, you know ARP is the gold standard for bolts that won't vibrate loose or corrode. Paired with a high-capacity, deep-pleated washable filter element, this is an intake built for the long haul.

4. The Perfect Stage 1 Foundation

Pairing this Insight Intake with a high-performance exhaust is the ultimate "Stage 1" upgrade. But remember, more air in means you need to adjust your fuel mapping.

When we install these at our shop on Center St, we don’t just bolt them on and send you on your way. We recommend a session on our Dynojet 250i to ensure your air/fuel ratio is perfectly balanced. A properly tuned intake means a cooler-running engine and more torque in the palm of your hand.

Want to grab this kit for your ride? You can buy it right here on our site or swing by the shop to have us handle the install and the tune.
