EMGO, K&N, or a reusable ??

Lets hear it...

I have two machines a 450ES and a 300EX
both take the same oil filter so was wondering.

You can buy EMGO really cheap from Rockymountainatv.com. Last I had checked they were a little over $2.00 each. The EMGO doesn't come with a rubber gasket for the cover.

I had bought a filter at the local auto parts store. It MIGHT have been a K&N. I can't remember. It did come with a rubber gasket unlike the EMGO. It also cost more money. ($4.00+)

I just happen to have a bunch of rubber gaskets. So I ordered a bunch of EMGO's with my last order from RMtn.

If you don't have rubber gaskets on hand. Then I'd buy a filter that comes with one.

My original gasket was compressed between the metal from the factory. That left flat edges.

Now I can't find my gaskets. I obviously put them some place so I wouldn't lose them.

The gasket is just a rubber loop. I would take the old gasket to match it. Atv shops, auto parts stores and maybe even Walmart might have some. I think I bought some at a local auto parts store.

I probably wouldn't change the gasket either if it looks like it's in good condition.

Honda. And don't forget to replace all o-rings and the aluminum drain plug gasket.
