I would like to hear your comments about the use of these filters instead of the original ones, do they make the diference when we talk about BI-4 engine power ?

G.V

I don´t think you get more power by using k&n airfilters but since you can wash them using them it is much cheaper than replacing the original foam filter every time.

any worries regarding to the engine lifetime ?

G.V

I used a K&N filter for 20.000 km without any problems.

I think you wount get any troubble on road use.
Off road? hmmm... a oiled foam filter might be a better choice for that use.

Well, i´ll be using the bike most on road,....., i think i´ll get one,....., mainly because i can´t find an original here,....they are not available any more , thanks for your feedback guys


G.V

Did the RC use the same filter as the Nordies?
Fiat fire engine... cant just remember which one exactly. But this one should available at your local car part supplier. Just take the old one with you.

ciao Joachim <who would later on have a look at the alternative parts list at yahoo>
