    Once upon a time, a guy asked a girl 'Will you marry me?'
    The girl said, 'NO!'


    And the guy lived happily ever after and rode motorcycles and watched sport on a big screen TV, went fishing and surfing, and played golf a lot, and drank beer and scotch and had tons of money in the bank and left the toilet seat up and farted whenever he wanted.


    THE END

      Precisely commented.
      Coming on to k&n id like to add that Yes its an advantage compared to the stock ones and they sell like hot cakes(I had it for 15k kms) in a generally competitive market regardless of their con's on engine which even I faced with prolonged usage of universal cotton filters.(regular cleaning on trips and premature engine damage)

      Id agree and say that the stock bikes are designed, made and manufactured by companies with prolonged research and tests. Changing AFR by adding a k&n resolute to a significant damage over time.
      Chose wisely.
      I learned it the hard way, hope others learn it through research and data over the forum.
      Regards and ride safe.

        Only when I was in a dilemma to change my stock filter to after-market filter. I happened to go through this thread.

        Conclusion: Stick with the stock filter. I do not want to screw up with my engine for some sound and to get a tad better pick-up (which again remains arguable from what I read from some past posts).

        Also will using a after-market filter reduce your bike's mileage ? With whatever basic knowledge I have about filters, I believe it does. But some of you guys over here are too familiar with filters by experience, so it be valuable to know about it from your guys

        Very true. No matter how old a post was, a reply to it at any point in time adds to the content of the thread. Which in turn helps people like me, if not the one who originally posted it year ago

          Saw Two Brands On eBay Moxi(300) And HP(255)
          Wanted To Know Which In One Is Durable And Better In Terms Of Quality..
          Thank You
          HP filters is not at all a good filter. It's just a cheap product which will do nothing to your engine or its performance. Go for either K&N or UNI. Cosworth is also a good filter.

          I'm planning to buy UNI air filter for my honda dio, but confused between UNI, cosworth, K&N and green filters. Someone please guide me. And also does anyone know where I'll be able to upjet my carburetor in pune? I'm also planning to buy iridium spark plug with splitfire sparkplug cable and racing CDI.
