Product Information

The Hive is a premium carbon-fiber air cleaner assembly built to enhance both the performance and aesthetics of Harley-Davidson Sportster intake systems.

Its hexagonal carbon-fiber cover pairs with a transparent, interchangeable lens, allowing real-time visibility of throttle body movement — a rare fusion of function and mechanical display.

At just 9 ounces, Hive is one of the lightest intake units available. Carbon-fiber construction resists heat soak, helping draw cooler air for improved throttle response and consistent engine performance.

A KM-378R high-flow washable filter comes pre-installed, while customizable lens colors, cover finishes, and hardware options let Hive match virtually any build style.

Internal crankcase ventilation keeps installation clean with no external hoses. Designed and manufactured in the USA.

Designed & Built in the USA

Every Kinetic product is designed and manufactured in the United States. Keeping our work in-house allows us to control quality, refine fitment, and stand behind every part we make.

A Decade of Hands-On Experience

Founded in 2013. A decade of machining, installing, riding and refining components on real bikes — not just in a lab. That experience shows in the quality of every part we ship.

Designed by Riders & Builders

Every product is shaped by hands-on building and riding experience, with practical decisions made where it matters most.

Innovation Meets Passion

Made in the USA

Founded in 2013 by Mike Le, Kinetic Motorcycles was built on a simple belief: motorcycle parts aren't generic hardware — they're personal. Every product begins as an original idea, designed by Mike and developed entirely in-house.

We don't rely on templates or outsourced shortcuts. Each part is shipped by hands-on fabrication experience and time spent riding, testing, and refining. Whether you're dialing in a daily rider or building something truly your own, our focus is the same — create parts that feel intentional, functional, and worthy of your motorcycle.

What Our Customers Say

Really happy with the product. Took a while to get my order but they were out of the spark plug cables I ordered. I had to email and inquire what the deal was. They were super helpful once I initiated communication. Would have been cool to get some swag or something since they took so long. But the relocator is great. I really love it. And they responded promptly once I reached out to them. Their customer service is truly fantastic.

Ignition Coils Relocator (L.E.) Relocator for Harley-Davidson Sportster

I had some questions on some bars, so I DMd them on Instagram. The dude I talked to was super helpful. I purchased the shirt because of his response. I’ll rep the brand due to the customer service.

Precision-machined and bolt-on perfect. Took 30 minutes to install and the difference is night and day.
