Re: K&N Air Filter Installation - easy does it
This is my 2nd best performance mod to R6 forks, SS lines, HH pads.
Contrary, to what others say about making no difference at all, my experience is opposite. I swapped mine out and it was not dirty. But man what difference!! Smooth, linear power delivery through all...

Re: K&N Air Filter Installation - easy does it
Just installed on my bike can feel a little difference. With the stock exhaust it definitely has a nice growl when hitting the rpm's hard.

Re: K&N Air Filter Installation - easy does it
Nice! You might also hear the increased air flow as you are starting out on the bike and accelerating.
Cheers

Re: K&N Air Filter Installation - easy does it
I did the airbox mod so I went back to OEM filter for protection. After seeing how thick it was again, I wish I hadn't and wished I had went the k/n route. $35 down the pisser

Re: K&N Air Filter Installation - easy does it
Just installed my K&N, and I noticed the difference in sound (subtle) from 4k-8k, and let's be honest, I was giggling like a schoolgirl from 8k to my shift point, so I can't be too sure about the sound up there! Totally worth it, and thanks again for a great write-up!

Re: K&N Air Filter Installation - easy does it
I just wanted to throw out there that even with all the aftermarket filter tests and criticism about filtration, many OEM are putting together factory performance kits that include highflow filters.
Some are NISMO, TRD, SPOON, FORD RACING PRODUCTS, GM performance parts. I'm sure the SRT4,8,10 and the SVT products would include such filters as well.
