I use stock Honda. Your question is kinda like - what shoes do you wear? ...you'll get a different answer from just about everyone. ;-)

I personally can't see paying the extra bucks for a K&N (or other) air filter, oil filter, etc, when for *general* use, the factory Honda filters are good.

I have three letters that equate to three words.


O...E...M... Unless it's an exhaust system or some sort of engine performance part I buy Honda genuine parts. I even buy Honda oil petroleum/synthetic mix. That's the best way to go usually. It can be pricier than aftermarket stuff sometimes. But those parts will work best because that's what it was designed for.

And I think an OEM fuel filter is only 15 bucks or so. I am in need of one pretty bad. Mine's dry rotted nearly to hell.


Edit: I did forget to mention that my air filter is a K&N air filter. I bought that because its reusable. I've heard mixed rumors about K&N air filters. But mine seems to work fine.

Sure. You could find a wrecked 919 and get what you need off of it..throttle bodies, fuel pump, tank, ecu..etc.
