Paired nicely with my Drummer SS exhaust after an ECU tune
My only performance part I had fitted on my Buell XB12Ss before adding the K&N air filter was my Drummer SS exhaust. On inital installation of the K&N air filter the throttle response was not the greatest and would bog down when the throttle was increased quickly but they paired nicely together after the ECU tune was adjusted for both these performance parts. Great quality part made by K&N, simple installation on the Buell XB and I really like the idea of just cleaning the air filter when required with no need to purchase another air filter ever again. Good to see Webike still supplying parts for the discontinued Buell motorcycles.

Genuine K&N Air Filter for Suzuki GSX650F 2011
This GSX650F came in for a service which included air filter, oil filter and oil change. I decided to go for the K&N filter over the OEM one because you also have the ability to wash, re-oil and re-use these filters. I have never found them to be anything less than the quality of the standard OEM filters and do not have any less performance. As I said, these are reusable if you do it all correctly. This is replacing the OEM Suzuki one which came on the bike when the customer dropped it off. By the looks of it, it has rarely been changed. I dispair how some people manage to run bikes without the slightest notion of maintenance. Finding the correct filter for this bike was easy too, I checked on Webike website and this showed the models that fit each filter. Really easy. I had other items in my order and this then cut down the shipping over the entire order. I use EMS fast service which arrived at my door in 5 days. All the items were packaged really well and bubble wrap and air pockets were used to fill any space in the box. Webike even tape the outer box on all sides so nothing can get in or out. The filter arrived in perfect condition and did come pre-oiled which is also nice so you do not have to mess around the first time. Fitted in about half an hour total. The final result was perfect. A nice clean well oiled air filter ready for a few thousand miles to come. Thanks to Webike for doing a great job and providing a great service throughout. View detail
Genuine K&N Air Filter for Suzuki GSX1300R
We wanted to try the new K&N filter for this bike over the OEM one becasue you also have the ability to wash, re-oil and re-use these filters. I have never found them to be anything less than the quality of the standard OEM filters and do not have any less performance. As I said, these are reusable if you do it all correctly. This is replacing the OEM Suzuki one which came on the bike standard. Finding the correct filter for the bike was easy too, I checked on Webike website and this showed the models that fit each filter. Super easy.I had other items in my order and this then cut down the shipping over the entire order. I use EMS fast service which arrived at my door in 5 days but there was a weekend inbetween. All the items were packaged really well and bubble wrap and air pockets were used to fill any space in the box. Webike even tape the outer box on all sides so nothing can get in out. The filter arrived in perfect condition and fitted as I mentioned above in about half an hour total and that was including cleaning the surfaces and prepping everything. The final result was great, all sorted and no leaks. If you do it right the first time, follow the instructions this won't happen anyway. Very pleased with my order, a big thanks to Webike for doing a great job and providing a great service throughout. View detail

Along with rewriting the ROM!
It seems to be almost the same as YOSHIMURAK&N, and the price is cheaper here.
Engine response will be very good if done together with ROM rewriting.
