In the early 1960s, two motorcycle racers, Ken Johnson and Norm McDonald
(K&N) developed a ground-breaking new idea for an air filter. After
experimenting with numerous types of filter media, they discovered that an
oiled cotton design allowed the filter to not only capture contaminants
very efficiently, but also allowed it to be washed and reused, and the
original K&N High-Flow Air Filter was born. Five decades later, K&N
is still innovating industry-leading filtration technology. In addition to
performance air filters, K&N® now manufactures a variety of other
protection and performance products, including air intake systems, oil
filters & fuel filters, with a reputation for exceptional quality and
customer service.
K&N Powersports oil filters contain a modern
synthetic filter media, designed for ultimate flow with less pressure drop,
yet engineered for outstanding filtration. K&N Powersports 'spin-on'
oil filters feature a heavy-duty metal can. Most of these have a 17 mm nut
affixed onto the end that allows for easy removal. The 17 mm nut is
crossed-drilled so racers can safety wire the filter to their
bike.
