Hi all, I'm new.

I've just bought a 1125R and it's effin' great. Already thinking of tinkering though.

Anyone fitted one of these?

BU-1108 K&N Air Filter BUELL 1125R 08-09

Are they easy to do?

Do they make a difference?

Are there any 'How To' guides anywhere?

With pictures?

Regards, Monty.

It works well. Install only requires a T30 torx bit and the removal of 6 screws: 2 for the seat and 4 for the airbox cover. 2 rubber bands hold the filter in place.

You will hear more intake roar but not a lot.

If you have the factory exhaust you will hear a bit more of the "whoosh" associated with the throttle bodies opening up. Throttle tip in will be a little quicker and the engine will be able to breathe better. Another plus side of any reusable performance filter is that they are VERY easy to clean and maintain.

I recommend these filters to everyone even if it's for fuel efficiency and longevity sake.
