Just a simple question really...............

K&N. Probably the most expensive but they have a good reputation, came out well in tests and have a drilled nut on the end which make them very easy to remove and lockwire on the race bike.

I bought the first lot off ebay and then contacted the bloke direct when I needed more earlier this year.

They cost about £7 each so not cheap, but saves hassle of lockwiring with jubilee clips and stuff.

I use Ducati parts and change them regularly, if anyone gets a filter really stuck don't forget that I have made up a tool that locates in the base plate that always gets them shifted. Just need to tear off the outer can to get at the baseplate.
