The latter have proved highly fallible and I will never touch another. I have bought a HiFlo filter for my CB, but it was identical to the OEM filter.Hey Cormanus,
Yep, it's formed into the actual filter. I read good things about the quality of the 'Hi-Flo' filtering but haven't had to remove one yet!
Just figured it would work but then assumption is the mother... as they say.
Did the K&N filter split at the nut when you tried to remove it?
No, beardy, the ones I was referring to failed on the bike. See http://cb1100forum.com/forum/showthread.php?tid=9576 for starters.
