Upgrade air filters fzs600

[Deano448]

What’s the standard done on a T reg 600 fazer?


Upgrades filter like in the box ?


Total air box removal and open cone filters ?


What has everyone done in the past or is standard the way to keep it ?

Most leave the standard air box and put in a K&N air filter like in the picture. If you search on ebay you'll find lots of them, they're about £50. Some people have tried pod filters but I think it's been proven that they make the bike run worse.

I fitted a similar Pipercross filter in my 2002 Foxeye and it was fine.

Cheers... I presumed some replacement cone filters would be to open to the elements as I ride in all

K&N is rumoured to give a couple more bhp as it lets the bike run slightly leaner

My personal experience is that fitting a K&N filter along with an aftermarket tail pipe more or less got rid of the flat spot in the rev range. Adjusting the TPS and balancing the carbs made a big difference to how smooth it was afterwards too. Not sure if it gave any more power. no changes are required to the jets as it runs rich as standard.

As stated above, most people that have tried pod filters have had loads of trouble trying to get the jetting right and probably ended up with more noise, but less power than they started with.
