If you get a chance would you post a pic showing it all done? Also, where did you buy the Unifilters?

hey guys,
I am working on installing K&N RX-4010s on my Touring. If you could, check out the pic. I have only bought and mounted 1. You guys this it’s worth going for it? Looks? Also anyone think it’s worth it profomance wise? Also not really sure what I will do with my claw. May buy a new one and try cutting it. Anyway what you guys think?
Thanks!

I think it will look good and know it will perform muuucchh better.

Taking in the consideration that the touring tank and bear claw is much difference from the standard/roadster R3s you'll have to do some customizing.

Can you turn them slightly towards the front of the bike giving you more room for your knee?

That's the only issue I see.

I like the K&Ns much better than the cheap looking fire attracting foam RamAir junk.

I'm not sold on the RamAirs filtering performance either.

Try to avoid that if all is possible.

Here you go. I also added Outerwear covers. Got them from Amazon "Uni Filter 2-stage Straight Pod Filter 76mm I.d. X 102mm Length". You could also get the same filter in 6" height for two bucks more.

Nice...maybe some automotive door trim on the edge to finish it.

Hi Skanska

On my R3 std I did this, took some jimmying with angles and some tubing to adapt but was happy with result, just left the claw off every bend is a different length and needs to be cut on a different height (same angle though) , found out the hard way.
However, as WyldCFH says, you cannot use your knees to grab the tank. I'm not a good enough rider to get the benefit out of the additional airflow just like the look.

Looks like your already have the smaller K&N's on your bike.
