I have been running a D&D with the K&N just fine for a few miles. I got my MT-1 from KEDA Designs and it runs even better than before. I don't think you have to worry about serious damage unless you plan on racing or doing some very aggressive, endurance riding. Just my opinion. |

You should be fine for a while. WOT runs for the most part have shown to be in the 13.5:1 or 14:1. |

Don't do it and take care of the fuel first., |

This is one of those "can of worms" topics. I have run my "stock" 09 R with a K&N from new. 300 miles ago I fitted the Barker I know I am losing out on some performance and I know there are some very strong opinions about not doing this but it's my bike and it doesn't worry me... |

Jules, you will do the bike more harm then pleasure.. Don't talk if nothing happends. With no Tune, what you do is almost sadomasochistisch (you know what i mean) (-: |

Easyrider very much knows what he is talking about. You would do well to take his advice. |
