Hi Pete,

Just one question about Step 9, where does that hose go too? I just want to make sure i'm taping into the right one. I'm not sure which one is the vacuum hose.

If you can help that will be great,

Thanks,

I don't want to mislead you, but I can only remember one hose being behind the air intake unit. I no longer have my 900, but I remember only one hose behind the unit. I cut the hose and installed the T-Fitting then attached the hose that came with the kit. I then attached the other end of the additional hose to the new air intake unit.

I hope this helps and you can finish your project.

Good luck.

Really like the looks of this mod & I'm excited about the described power increases that users are experiencing. My main question right now is, will the adapter:

Thunder Air Kit Adapter for Hypercharger - Vulcan 900

work for any of the Thunder Air Kit hyperchargers(standard, Pro Series, Pro-R)?

Another question is, has anyone had one of these powdercoated or is that just a stupid idea? I'm on a VN900 Custom SE & want to stay with the black theme, if powdercoating is an option I'd like to go with the Pro-R, if not I'll do the standard in black.

This is one of the most helpful forums hands down & I really appreciate you guys posting all this awesome info. I've gotten some great ideas and really helpful info.

I've had mine on for 2 summers now and love it,, only thing is my bike still has some really loud backfiring like as loud as a shotgun sometimes,, annoying. have adjusted the cobra controller allot and it’s the best as I can get I think without using a dyno, I'm getting 52 to 53 mpg with my pipes and the intake when I'm alone, and with my wife it's down around 50 which is still good.

Ok I got the hypercharger last week and I got it all the way put on except for when I got to the T valve. I didn't get the T valve with the hypercharger when I bought it so I called Kuryakyn about it. They sent me the part for free but correct me if I am wrong, but dosent a T valve shaped like a T? A T valve is so you can connect 3 differnet hoses together right, because that not what I got. It only has 2 ends.

Post number 81 is right on the money ... it has to be a T

Hi Capt..

Nice info and step by step guide how to install the hypercharger. BTW, i'm from Malaysia, where rainy season is a lot. Therefore, if i'm using the hypercharger during rainy season does it need to be covered with some sort of socks or whatever to prevent water from gushing into the air intake.

Please help...thanks.

I kept a copy of the Captain's install instructions. Here are the pics and original post.

VN900 Hypercharger Install Instructions


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I installed a Kuryakyn Pro-Series Hypercharger with a Thunder Adapter the other week on my 2007 Vulcan 900 Custom. It's a fairly easy install and should take about 30 minutes to complete. I had the Kawasaki Dealer's Service Department check my work to make sure it was done correctly...and it was.

The Thunder Adapter for the VN900 is Part#40205A (This is a Hypercharger only adapter...please do not confuse it with the other Thunder Adapter for the VN900 (Part#20205B) which is for Thunder Air kits such as the Tornado, Hurricane, etc...
I installed the Kuryakyn Pro-Series Hypercharger Type-A, Part# KA-609421.

If you plan on installing a PCIII and/or new pipes along with the Hypercharger, then I would recommend that a Kawasaki Dealer do the work instead...since they'll have to properly map the PCIII to the Hypercharger and pipes.

Anyway, here are the Step-by-Step Hypercharger install instructions (10 photos)...Good Luck:

Yeah, aftermarket parts come and go, it can be a little frustration at times. Keep searching, I'm sure you can find something.
