| Re: Question for those using K&N air filters.... The stock filter flowed more than what the motor could handle. I wouldn't worry about it. |

| Re: Question for those using K&N air filters.... hey does anyone know anything about flapper valve removal. if i want to remove it, not the whole PAIR system, is it just disconnecting the hose, and lifting up the assembly by the gauge cluster, and blocking that space with a plate? thanks |

| Re: Question for those using K&N air filters.... Pretty much yep. If you don't want to get a plate, just plug the hose. It doesn't hurt anything to leave it there. |

| Re: Question for those using K&N air filters.... Look in to the soft rev limiter mod also. Every free mod on the RC is simple, oh and free. |

| Re: Question for those using K&N air filters.... From a recent UK bike magazine test using a CBR1000RR, the BMC Race filters showed the greatest power gain. Event the K&N showed power gains over the stock filter. Now the CBR and RC51 are apples and oranges. But it would be interesting to have dyno runs with various filters to compare. |
