I have one mounted to the back of my stock airbox on my KZ900. I like it as an aftermufler and it also keeps the K&N inside the airbox totally clean. The reason I like it is because it eliminates carburetor noise which K&N will not.
Be it that it eliminates carb noise, I assume it flows less than the K&N then, or would you say similar?
I like the look of the chrome cap ones.

Just make sure to closely inspect them from the inside periodically. The UNI's I had started to crumble from the inside. The crumbs really have nowhere to go but into your engine.
yeah, I'm not too fond of that idea. I think I will suggest the K&N's. Considering they last practically forever, (when properly maintained) they're worth every penny.
Cheers.

The K&N's are sweet, but the price sure isn't. Seems to me K&N would sell A LOT more filters if they could come down on their inflated prices. :side:

I certainly agree on that one.The K&N's are sweet, but the price sure isn't. Seems to me K&N would sell A LOT more filters if they could come down on their inflated prices.
What about these guys?
They're the "Ape Super Pro Air Filters". Anyone have info on this set?
They look similar to the Emgo pods that I've seen. Are these better quality maybe?
Cheers.

I had the UNI chrome capped pods on the Gpz when I bought it. They do eventually start to crumble. There is also a spring inside to help it keep shape.
Using K&N now and will not look back.
KZ750R1 + 1991 ZR750 = KZR750R1
