New Nitrous Conversion Kit Means More Power,
Twice The Fun For Harley® Motorcycles


TORRANCE, Calif. (July 17, 2002) – Edelbrock’s aftermarket dual 12-ounce bottle nitrous conversion kit offers significantly more power for Harley-Davidson® motorcycles via a specially designed bolt-on system. Easily installed, the kit converts an Edelbrock 12-ounce nitrous system to a two-bottle set-up, providing 24 ounces of nitrous for extra power and acceleration when you need it.

Edelbrock’s nitrous systems are engineered and dyno-tested to give a true 35-hp boost at the push of a button. All Edelbrock nitrous systems for Harley-Davidsons are model-specific bolt-on kits featuring stainless-steel jets to prevent erosion, plus a unique Electronic Module and RPM Sensor, which activates nitrous at 4,300 rpm to reduce the chance of engine-damaging detonation.

The conversion kit (part number 71920) is a complete set-up, including a 12-oz. bottle with valve, two bottle clamp assemblies, all necessary hoses and fittings. The dual-bottle conversion kit will work with any of Edelbrock’s 10 existing nitrous kits. Only the frame bracket, which varies based on the tubing diameter of the Harley-Davidson model, must be purchased separately.

Suggested retail price is $277.95, available at local Drag or Arlen Ness dealers.
