I'm asking for one of those on the upcoming 12K service. new brake pads front and back and that air filter. I read somewhere that the K&N air filter can be cleaned not just replaced.
I use a K&N... it requires removing a lot of stuff to get to it (time consuming). As far as any questions related to the performance, or to debunk any random theories see their FAQ:
K&N Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
I need to take the time to look up where the air filter is in the service manual. I don't have a concept yet of where it is.
Mechanical people: is the NC easier/harder to work on than a standard v-twin?
Guys, keep in mind K&N filters let in more particles than normal. Many tests have been done and they significantly reduce engine life.
When you increase airflow you’re reducing filtration..
...to each their own.
I'm still waiting for the facts showing that a K&N leads to shorter engine life. NOTHING you have provided shows that. You stated it as a fact. If you have no proof, then you should say its your opinion, not that there are numerous studies showing degraded engine life.
