Do they sell air filters at Autozone for motorcycles? Preferably a 97 cyclone? Can i use a car airfilter for my bike? | ||

Are you running the stock airbox? | ||

It's the airfilter on the side that looks like an icecream cone, that's the only way i can describe it. I think it's stock. | ||
| Brinnutz |
Like this one?  | ||
| M_bison |
Exacto! Can i pick a filter up like that from an auto store? | ||

If its the Forcewinder like Brinnutz's pic then I don't imagine a standard automotive paper filter would stand up to the elements like the proper K&N would. But I'm no expert. However Autozone should have access to K&N's full filter lineup and could order you the correct filter. I know they are not exactly cheap but they are made to last and who wants to take chances with your intake. Psy | ||

Just take the filter in with you. Wait..Why replace it? K&N are washable?!?!?! Get the recharge kit for it! | ||

Ok i'm going to have to be "grasshopper" and learn from the seasoned riders such as yourselves. Ok my first question is what is that filter good for? Because i bought my bike from a private seller and he just gave me a heads up that i might want to replace the filter in about a month or 2. It's a bit dirty looking and run down a bit. But yea, what are they good for if you don't mind me askin. I'm so new.  | ||

they flow great and have a million mile guarantee!! just clean with simple green, and re-oil once dry. i tried to buy just the filter some years ago, to make a cheaper version forcewinder, K&N doesn't sell that filter, exclusive to Force! but they do make a universal that will work.

Don't waste your money on the cheap filter. I had one on my bike and the rubber boot ripped and the air filter fell off and now I have a K&N filter. The fiter can be wash though and the K&N recharge kit you should be able to get at any auto store and there is directions on the box on how to wash the fiter. | ||

Actually we found one pretty darned close on the K&N web site, in Oct. 2007, but Djkaplan actually ordered it, so I don't know how exact a match it was. The 'universal' one matched every dimension listed of the ones on our Forcewinders. I can't find the number handy. | ||
