I was thinking about putting a K&N air filter on my 2006 1000RR but my buddy who has an 04 said he put one on his and it ran like sh*t, and some errorlight kept coming on in his display cluster. Does anyone have any input or experience with an aftermarket airfilter on a newer bike?

 

I have a 04 1krr and after i wrecked i found the dealer installed all sorts of goodies, one including BMC race filters. my bike doesn't have exhuast nor a power commander. but i don't have any crazy lights or anything and its got a great intake growl all i need now is exhuast

 

So do you know which is considered better BMC or K&N air filters???

 

bmc all the way..k&n shows decreases in power on some dyno runs...wish i still had the dyno runs saved on my computer..but yeah def. go with bmc...

 

I have an 05 1000, put a K&N filter on the same time I put my RS-5 on noticed power gain and better responce. Also got a better sound, no lights or anything strange like that had it on the bike over a year now and everything has been good.

 

If you want intake growl go with BMC(RACE) and the flapper removal.....very nice sound.....and ive got a RS5-slipOn and PCusb

 

BMC Race filters all the way

 

exactly---bmc (race)all the way. that, along with the flapper mod, pc3and an arata exhaust = one bad *** sounding and performing bike.

 

I dont know if I trust a company that doesn't even have my model of bike on their website!
