Default Paper air filters?

Well I will try and post this again ,tried during the summertime.
Does anybody have a aftermarket part number for the Polaris paper air filters yet??

I would think Fram or Nap will soon have a part number by now...........They came out for the 2006 season!!!...Thanks for any help.............Caper........

BTW here in Canada the price at the dealer is very high for a paper filter, and the pre-filter is extra!!!.......I buy TWO!!!

i cant beleave unless you got them muddy/wet their that dirty unless you ride alot of dusty areas. you can somewhat clean them out. the cover screen should protect them somewhat from getting real bad and would need to clean that often.

I was thinking about a
reusable K&N but still using my stock cover screen. That should make the K&N filter better yet both are washable.[img]i/expressions/light.gif[/img]
