If you read the cb1100 manual Honda recommends you simply blow your OEM filter with compressed air and call it a day.
MAF sensors came with hot film or hot wire … and K&N “oily” air filters are perfect killers for some of them.
Replaced plenty MAFs on cars, customer pay, while car still under warranty due to improper use, big buk$.

That's interesting. I've had a K&N on my 04 S10 for 16 years? Just don't over oil it when you clean it and they are fine.
Too many people try and put the entire can of oil back into the filter after they clean it, when it only needs enough to soak into the pleats.
Agreed, definitely do not over oil the filter substrate. They work fine when used properly over endless years.
That said, I prefer paper since most filters these days stay clean for a long time, unless you ride/drive a lot of offroad.
