Red face Best replacement for standard air filter ?

Took the air box lid off to see what all the fuss is about the noise, and it does sound good.

BUT, the standard air filter looks to be overdue for a change, its pretty clogged up.

Is there any worthwhile option to the OEM filter, or can you get something else to fit the standard air box ?

Thanks
Mark

K&N or Spoon is the only one I would use, in that order.

The K&N is much much cheaper than the Spoon one.

So K&N it is then

Thanks

I've just bought the ITG one through Tokyo Express at great expense. Still less than the Spoon though.

I understood that the boggo was better for filtration.

Others let more air through, but also bigger grit particles.

Important if you intend to leave the air box lid off.

What's the ITG one like? How much did you pay for it?
