Gonna take a look this weekend at the condition of it. bought bike last winter w 10000km's, not sure if its original or not? how long do they generally last, normal driving? Is a K&N a must or not.

If it runs good, just throw in whatever is already in there. They are expensive, so make sure you need a new one.

I hear there is no real performance gain from using a K&N . The advantage of it would be that you never have to buy another filter

na dont get K&N. you can go OEM for $40 bucks or go BMC...which is $20 more and looks/design appears closer to stock filter than K& N. This way it will trap the most debri that goes into the engine as well as allowing the most air to go in at the same time.
