Throttle Body Support Bracket | M8 Touring

If you are replacing your stock air cleaner on your Harley-Davidson M8 Touring model (2017-Up), you are going to need this throttle body support bracket—but only under specific circumstances. Harley-Davidson offers two different styles of stock air cleaners. This bracket is required only if your bike does not have the Milwaukee-Eight Power Optimized Air Cleaner Upgrade from Harley-Davidson, which includes built-in throttle body support.

Here’s an example of the air cleaner style that requires this support bracket:

Whether you’re customizing your ride with the Zombie Breath Intake or any other aftermarket air cleaner that lacks a built-in support backing plate, this bracket is an essential component to ensure your setup is complete. It provides secure stabilization for your throttle body, maintaining your bike’s performance and reliability.
