Filters

Post by silver »

I'm getting ready to have a "maintainence day" with my bike as I've now managed to acquire several new pieces and winter is right around the corner. One thing I have found much info on is filters. Is there a concensus on the use of K&N air filters for street use ? Also what fuel filters are best to use and are there any good universal fitting filters available ? I'm already using the SuperTech ST6607 oil filters.

Silver,
I have a K&N air filter on my '94 FZR1000 and it runs fine on the street. I use the Yamaha oil filter because I'm at the Yamaha shop anyway buying the YamaLube-4 20W40 oil. My bike runs better with 20W40 and the Yamaha dealer is the only one that has it.

More than you ever wanted to know about filters. Check out the side link to oils under the Lubricants section too.
