Huge performance gain, but one thing...

Insane performance gain right away. Works as intended. 4/5 stars because there are fibers left over from production on both sides of the filter. I had to go over the ribs to make sure all of these fibers were separated prior to installation, I really don't want them being sucked into the engine.

Basically standard replacement

I didn't really like how much pressure I had to use to get it in place but after that it was great. Check out the instructions on where to apply pressure if you have trouble applying. I think the tight fit is because they got rid of the little snags that the OEM filter has. In terms of performance, I didn't really notice the difference and I really didn't expect it. Well, it works a lot better than a clogged factory filter, but it's really no different than when the bike was new with a fresh…
