Title: K&N Air Filter For KX 125 / 250
Post by: Kawafornication on October 14, 2018, 08:28:10 AM
Has anybody on here used K&N air filters on their bikes, are they work the money, do they help gain any power? Had one on a car long ago and it worked well, did not know they existed for MX bikes until 5 mins ago  :-o

I had one on my DR350 years ago, but I didn’t notice much difference.  I think they make more difference on cars, where you’re going against paper filters.

all I've used since the late 80's.

I've heard more bad than good about the k&n motocross filters...though I do run en on my KZ1000 with good results.

Thanks for the replies, I wont bother, on paper it looked good, the big price tag made me think there was a justifiable reason for it but from the looks of it nobody really has a lot of faith in them.
