Air filter change
« on: August 24, 2016, 19:02:58 »
Maybe I should have changed the air filter before this! 36k and a few tours abroad lol. Ah well it did it's job and a nice new K&N in it now  :grin:

Apparently a K&N filter doesn't need to be looked at for 50k miles...
OEM is replace @ 11k.

I'd say you got your money worth.

A quick blow out with an airline and it'd be good for another 36K  :)

It would've been salvaged with the airline, but I have a shiny K&N in now.  :)
