New Air Filter

[Grahamm]

I need a new air filter for my FZ6-SA (faired ABS).

There's a range of aftermarket ones which are about half the price of the OEM one, so is there any difference and is there any downsides from using a replica filter?

Any comments or recommendations would be welcomed.

The pattern ones are usually ok!

I use the Hi -Filtro one from Wemoto, some prefer the K&N allegedly indestructible one which is normally 3-4 times the price but probably not that much more expensive than the OEM one. I'm doing around 14000/year so the K&N would probably have done for me but you need to clean it so I just use the chuckable paper ones
