Dirty air filter

hey there , just bought a new k&n air filter for my 04 zx10r , couldn't believe the state of the old one , also couldn't believe the power gains when the new one was fitted. so an easy mod to get more power might be as easy as checking your filter!

K&N Filters never need replacing as long as they are correctly cleaned and maintained using the correct cleaning solution and replacement oil. Never blow them out with high pressure air - just follow the instructions and use the right gear for a trouble-free time.

the old one was the factory original , not sure how much $$$$ they are worth but the new k&n was about $115 , for a million mile and a life time warranty not a bad price at all :-)
