Best Air filters ?

Ty13ty · 01-22-2012, 08:52 PM

I have a 1000x with airdam clutches ,blaster paddles, rear cage with seat and a viper elite 5000lb winch. I've noticed some dirt getting past my stock filter and was wanting some feedback on after market filters.

K & N is the best. Lets in plenty of air its easy to clean and will last. I have it on all my vehicles.

uni has a bigger seal than the k&n
some guys who ride in really dusty conditions has found dust beyond the k&n
mostly do to the seal
uni works better cause of the thickness of the seal

I get dust in the box with the UNI too, the airbox es no bueno.

Does somebody make a filter that seals directly to the inlet hose but still keeps the stock air box so it's still somewhat waterproof

I put grease on the seal of my K&N and nothing gets past it now.

Are you greasing both sides of the k&N seal and that's been working???

Grease dam I should have thought of that. I love a simple solution

It's called air filter rim grease. Go to a shop that sells dirt bikes, you'll be able to find some there.
