It looks like the Oem Air Filter for the NC700X is roughly $35.00 + shipping $$, so maybe $40.00 thats without any labor involved
I NEVER USE K&N Air Filter as to me they do Not remove enough dirt & i do not want to turn any of my vehicles in to a Vacuum cleaner, especially not My new or Old Scooters.
I have some/several Goldwings that I do my own servicing on,
I bought a second OEM Air filter plate for my Goldwings, it looks like the oem NC700X is similar, but I have not seen one up close and out of the bike.
What I do on my goldwings is buy the second Oem air Filter Plate (air filter element that is in a Plastic Plate) I take the old one that i removed the plastic plate is reusable, I then take a exato knive or Box cutter and cut out the Paper element out.
Once the paper element is removed get one the right size of the filter needed and the size of the filter used.
On some I had to cut the filter so that is fits snugly into the old Air filter Plastic plate (Old air filter media previously removed) and (put a piece of was paper down on the bench first) put the plate on the wax paper with the new filter in it,
Or you maybe able to find a filter that just slips right in and glue it in, with shoo goop, let it dry 24 hours, note when gluing make sure there is enough glue around filter that it is sealed on all sides between filter and filter base plate.
Then take a tube of Shoo Goo and put a good bead all the way around the filter, to seal the New filter to the old filter plate. It should not take more than half a tube, probably less.
I will do the same to my new NC700X when I receive it from my local dealer,
I will need to find the most cost effective filter through napa by the size of the honda OEM and how many filters i can make out of it.
