Hi there all,

In the market for new air filter, not OEM.

Have got K&N at moment,and have in bike and car for many years.

Don`t know if I want another one!!

After looking at air box in car and bike,there is evidence of debris,not like someone chucked a handfull sand in there, but something that i think should be of concern.

Always clean properly,and re-oil,have done for 28yrs.

So the question is ,has anyone got an opinion on "PIPERCROSS AIR FILTERS"

better..worse...don`t know?

Thanks,John

Don't know about Pipercross, but from my research BMC is the brand to go with, I've got one on the way for the zx14.
I've seen a lot of feedback from users of K&N saying they could see clearly through large spaces in them.

And also a few comments similar to yours about stuff in the airbox.

I got mine for $65 I got a few other bits n pieces at the same time so the postage was negligible, to get one in Aus was about double the price.
Here's where I ordered from, if you need any oem parts they have good prices too http://find.powersportsplus.com/?q=bmc&s=1&fq=model_base_facet:"GSF1200"
