lots (incl engine builder) have warned me against mesh or no filters as too much fine debris will mean engine rebuild come mid season. I was going to use bodywork mesh originally

It's only top end though, its all a trade off, if you fit restrictive filters you may as well keep the air box IMHO.

Thats all I will be using, same as on 853r. No filters but knowing wear will be increased and potential for sucking in debris in an off.
