Anyone here using the UNI air filter made to replace the stock one? I need a new air filter and was thinking about picking one up. Its $29 so cheaper than the K&N and not that much more than the stock filter.

If its a foam UNI with cage, I used one for a year or so, worked great. I already oil the filters on my other bikes so maintenance wasn't an issue.

I am running one now. Last summer in stock air box,race ecm and CF Jardine. Worked fine. Installed air box eliminator kit from American Sport Bike over the winter and runs/sounds super!

I am also running one. It is a lot tighter fit than the k & N which I found to have a tiny bit of play.

Gbaz, what version of the clutchlite are you thinking about? Just wanted to know if you've done any research on the versions, as to which feels the best, I;m also thinking about one but was stumped on which one to pick....thanks

I was thinking about trying the 30% one Xsoft. I dont know if 40% xxsoft would be too much... They are not too expensive, so it would not kill me to change it out if i did not like it. Phat sells the air filter and clutchlite so i was just going to get both at the same time.

Reading some on it here and i have found no complaints on any of the clutchlite options. the 40% may require adjusting your cable, according the the manefuct website, but that was the only instalation difference.
