Does anyone know what brand/model this air filter is? I inherited 3 of them with my 2010 R3R.

Measurement-wise it is 78mm high. The base is not much wider than the throttle-body opening. (apologies to those of you who still work in inches ). It says KY60 on the bottom, but I haven't been able to get Google to bring up anything that looks similar. http://lmgtfy.com/?q=KY60+air+filter

I don't want to turn this in to a thread about the suitability of these filters to air-flow and performance. I'm just trying to identify what they are for now.

While I don't use them myself...it looks similar to the K&N filters used in the bearclaw modification to use three of them and bypass (and usually use for storage) the regular air filter in the regular air box under the seat. There are plenty of pics of this type of mod on the site.

Looks like the asian K&N copy filter from Emgo.

Yep, Emgo if you're lucky. They're ok but a little small I reckon. If not, chuck 'em; they're rubbish.

They look even smaller when I hold them in my big hands apparently

That I do. This thread was just to identify what they were. Will look in to replacing them at/around the same time my TuneECU cable arrives.

And will get prices from Neville.
