| Re: air filter I used DNA filters in mine and others use BMC race filters which seem to give 1-2 bhp increase over stock. K & N don't appear to be of any benefit. Check out: Online Store |

| Re: air filter K&N on the 954RR actually decreases the power. Standard is the best i believe. How about doing the flapper mod, PCIII and slip on (only if they are compatable with your bike) |

| Re: air filter Well the flapper mod is what Honda put in bikes to stop the noise level (this is done by restricting air flow). Well thats what ive heard.
The PCIII is basically a chip. You plug it in and you get imediate power. Best results is when its set up purely for your own bike. I wouldnt know if the 929 is able to work with both of these.
Hows the weather up there? |

| Re: air filter the flapper mod is getting rid of the flapper thats inside the airbox. do a search on here and you'll find all the info on how to do it. if you still have the HTEV (valve in the exhaust) I'd just leave the flapper alone.
and yes there's a PowerCommander3 for the 929.

| Re: air filter You change an air filter at what? 10K? 20K?
I use a stock OEM filter.
