K&N V's Piper Cross filter

[AdventureUly]

What filter have you fitted to your Buell?

I am looking at changing my filter and give or take £10 they both seem the same. One is paper and one is foam.

Any views would be great. Paper V,s foam?

Cheers....

when I was in my teens I used to flattrack race and every one i raced with including my self used foam filters and I thought they was great because you could just spray them off with a water hose and ring them out after every race. I would assume those cross pipers would be very similar and I would be willing to try one out if they did not cost so much compared to a k&n for some one in the US.

On the other hand I have ran K&N in every street going vehicle I have owned since I have been riding/driving street going vehicles.

I am sure either one will be good and they both have the plus of being reusable so you never have to buy a new one.
