Hello Teener World,
I have been a suspended oil foam filter fan since my motocross days (50 years ago) but just bought a brand new Mann paper air filter. My K&N is looking quite worn out and my flaps guy said why bother doing the cleaning and oil anymore? Just buy a quality new paper filter and be on your way. So I did and would love to hear what others have to say about the topic....thank you very much to all!!
