World leading K&N performance air filters!
Since 1969 K&N
Engineering has been designing, manufacturing, and enhancing High-Flow
Air Filters for the motorcycle enthusiast interested in maximizing
horsepower and acceleration. Since their humble beginnings K&N have
designed and manufactured over 2,400 High-Flow Air Filters to fit most
modern vehicles and over 500 High-Flow Air Intake Systems. K&N not
only have more applications than any other manufacturer of similar
product, K&N invented the High-Flow category and the High-Flow
Technology that supports it. K&N also makes thousands of racing and
specialty type air filters!
Engine Protection,
Filtration
Anyone can flow more air. The trick is to flow more
air safely. K&N have hit the sweet spot - an optimal blend of high air
flow, filtration efficiency, durability and dust capacity.
The Importance of Oil
A K&N Air Filter is made of 4 to 6
layers of cotton gauze sandwiched between two epoxy-coated aluminium
wire screens. The cotton is treated with a specially formulated grade
of oil causing tackiness throughout the cotton's microscopic strands.
The nature of the cotton allows high volumes of airflow, and when
combined with the tackiness of the oil creates a powerful filtering
media that ensures engine protection. In contrast, most other media
can not maintain the same balance of airflow and filtration throughout
the filter's life without sacrificing one or the other. With a K&N Air
Filter, there is no sacrifice! Since 1969 K&N Engineering has been

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's high-flow air filters are available as a
replacement for your stock motorcycle air filter element. They are
custom engineered to fit your specific application and are designed to
provide low restriction and increased performance, while providing
excellent engine protection for your motorcycle.
