Default K&N or Foam Filter? For EFI King Quad.

What's better for an EFI King Quad, K&N or any foam type filter? I hear the OEM paper filter's are no good!

I am no expert, so I asked my local dealer about the paper filter problem.

He said that they work OK but if you drive a lot of dusty trails you have to watch them and change as required. Local cost is about $20.00 ea.

IF you want the foam filter it is about $100.00 BUT you have to watch it too and maintain the filter / oil. (blow out the foam and change the oil regularly)

It was his opinion that routine maintenance is the key. Other than that he was willing to sell me either filter.

i think the paper would be fine i have a polaris that has a paper you can take it out and blow it out witha air hose the advanteg to the foam filter with the oil on it
i think is incase it gets wet. I know "uni filter makes a filter to fit your machine ..alot cheaper then k&n i have been told that k&n can let a litle bit of dirt in.

get a k&n and put a pre-filter on it. works better than a foam. easier to clean, flows better.

I put a K&N with a pre filter over it and so far it is working just fine. Try to ride in front of your group the rider two or more quads back is taking in all the dust.

I went to the suzuki update school and they said to get the UNI air filter, I am not a fan of the K&N's. I have rebuilt endless fourwheelers that hade K&N's installed they even say on there websit that there's starts to loose dirty blocky properties after 10 cleanings.
