1-i am looking for the part number for an k@n filter not for the stock airbox on my 01 m2 but for the oval filter that goes into the carbon fiber cover upgrade. the filter is probably 15 years old and probably needs changed due imperfections in the sealing surfaces of the old filter, or can i use some type of grease to help get a good seal as ive seen used on some dirt bike air filters? 2-while riding sometimes it feels like the clutch slips as the bike loses momentum for a split second before taking back off. exclusively in 1st and second gear and seems to me to primarily do it after making a turn from a stop. belt tension, sprockets look fine. clutch plates? | ||

On the clutch slippage are you using an oil in the primary designed for wet clutch? If not you would experience slippage as described. | ||

It may not be a slipping clutch. The engagement dogs on the transmission slider gears, or/and the receiving slots on the stationary gears, may be worn. Under heavy load (accelerating), the dogs may disengage momentarily, creating a “slipping” feeling. If that’s the issue you have, it will slowly get worse. Complexity and cost of the repair is “moderate” and parts should be available - same as comparable year Sportster. | ||

All transmission gears are either new or not worn as I lost 2nd gear 2 summers ago and went thru the tranny. As well as new shift fork as it had some wear. Other forks looks good | ||

Likewise the belt looks good as well as the pulleys. |
