and I paid £40 for mine, Kirsty showed me a link that was a bit cheaper, but I saved postage where I got mine (so 6 of one, half dozen of the other) I went to the K&N distributors list and phoned one near where I was working 3 days later

yup, that was the link Kirsty gave me......

I was just working about 100yds from a place in Brackley... so didn't have to worry about someone being about for delivery, but sounds like it's worth shopping abut a bit as they can be had even cheaper .... oooh well I'd only have spent it on beer.... or possibly pies!!!

Had my K&N in for about a year now. How often should you clean them and where's the best (cheapest place) to buy the cleaning stuff from?

[robdrinky]

quote from k&n website,
If you have not experienced a decrease in mileage or engine performance, chances are your filter is fine and does not yet need cleaning. To be more specific, the filter does not require cleaning if you can still see the wire screen on the entire air filter regardless of how dirty it may appear. When the screen is no longer visible some place on the filter, it is time to clean it. When used in normal paved road, street or highway conditions, our replacement air filters that fit in the factory air box should require cleaning every 50,000 miles and our large conical filters on an intake system should require cleaning every 100,000 miles. When used in dusty or off-road environments, our filters will require cleaning more often. We recommend that you visually inspect your filter once every 25,000 miles to determine if the screen is still visible.


cleaning stuff can be got direct from k & n or local motorfactors(my local one anyway).
