That filter does not look like it was changed last year.
....
New OEM filter is white  and you can see light through it  :lol

Wow. I have a note here from February this year saying the mechanic changed air filter. That's just crazy. Is he duping me? I thought he's a nice honest lad. I will have to pull out the receipt and double check. I really hope it was a mistake from my part.

Seeing bike has already done 70k+ miles, would a K&N air filter be kinda aspirational? Def not getting hiflow air filter based on the experiences here #

The said note I had somewhere (it's not much, but may be you guys get a laugh out of it, figures are in EURO not Sterling)

    4 new spark plugs.
    new oil and filter.
    new air filter
    new front brake lever
    new rear break pads
    new rear piston seals etc, piston & calipers serviced and reconditioned
    33 bhp RESTRICTOR WASHERS taken out from the carb intake - FULL POWER NOW.
    3 hours of labour x 50.
    + VAT brought it to 340.

Are you saying that's also a Hi-Flo filter?

If so they have caused a few of us problems before, including me, they are cheap rubbish that simply don't let in the normal amount of air needed.

Go K&N, it'll feel like a new bike.
