You should be K&N's poster boy!I think next time I have a blow-out I'll blame Ford! Wait...somebody already did that! lol! [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-confused.gif[/img]

A simple search reveals my previous statements were correct....Proof. K and N has the same wording in every K and N I have purchased in the past. Although I do admit too not buying one for several years. Now on too your last response. So you watched a TV show and they recommended that K and N filters are best for desert racers. Did this show not give you a basis for this asumption.....and you asumed they were correct?

Because I would hate for you to make assumptions Gary. And, I did it before your reply. Look at the times.
K&N claimed they came up with the design for this particular track in California.
They have filtering tests on K&N's website you want to view it. Even explains the size of the particles. Kinda doubt they rolled it in dirt before the tests. You'll drop more dust in your intake while changing a filter then that K&N will let through.
As far as your prefilter comment, they say chunk it after 25 re-charges. If you had to service it after every ride, it wouldn't take long before you had to replace it. Get kind of expensive, wouldn't it?
Whatever Gary. Buy what you want. I'll stick with K&N.

So you really are just an a-hole.
Got it.

Is this why the show endorsed the K and N as a desert racer set-up?

K and N's web site states too trash the filter after 25 washings....not the pre filter. The foam pre filter is probably good for 100 washings.

What exactly did I change that cause you concern? Where I took that I missed a comma on "desert racing people"? I might edit for clarification but I've never changed a post to discredit someone.
I can't stand when people start bashing other products. Especially when personal experience has taught me otherwise. I'm surprise the Polaris folks didn't jump down the kid's throat. Never owned one or might have done it for them.
It was a desert race I was wathcing. They were a sponsor.
That is correct, their precharger is so you don't have to clean the filter as often. "IT" refers to the filter. The filter won't last long if you have to clean it after every ride.
