Bearclaw cut revisited

[CanberraR3]

I really opened mine up the other night for the first time since the tripples and Dobeck install and totally agree; the biggest difference with the tripples is the way it keeps pulling. I'm mostly taking advantage on a daily basis in traffic of all the bottom end grunt I've unlocked but you gotta love the way it spins out so freely when you get the chance.

I have seen there are differents K&N ref, some shorters than the others

Could you confirm the ref of your filters?
Thanks

What do you mean by "ref"? It isn't a word I've heard associated with filters before.

They are the RU2780, which is what I have fitted and seem to be the most commonly used. They have the advantage of fitting under the Bear Claw if you don't want to cut it away. However, a lot of riders also fit taller filters as Binnsy has done and there are other types too, which don't fit under the Bear Claw.

It's been suggested that the larger filters have better air flow - or more to the point, the RU2780s may not allow optimum air flow. I don't know. Personally I'd be surprised if there was much of a noticeable difference, if any, unless you have a lot of other modifications to your engine.

I suggest you look at these threads (not sure how to put in a link to them but they're easy to find).

These are nice. Do they have "booties" for them, as I've seen infrequently? End caps?

You can get the booties but so far I haven't been able to find end caps. I am going to fabricate something or other ...

I thought Flipmeisters was in the process of making caps.

He has them for RU-2780's, I don't know about the other K&N part numbers.
