New (to the US)



These are identical to the K&N filters -- K&N just repackages the HiFlo RC.

I have to assume they had a deal with HiFlo to keep the RC version out of hte US for a time and now that deal is done.

You can find them for 9-10$

They are 5 oz heavier than the standard HF153.  I am sure that's a combination of the bigger filter media and the weld-on nut.

"Yelling out of cars, turning your speakers out the window to blast your music onto the street, setting off M-80 firecrackers, firing automatic weapons into the airâ€"these are all well and good. But none of them create a merry atmosphere of insouciance and bonhomie quite like a revving motorcycle.

Be interested to hear if they are free of the issues K&N are having.

Got your own to do? :-*

Agreed...very bad choice.

I am sure there was some sort of time-limited agreement in place, which is why the HiFlo RC version showed up right around the time the KN switched suppliers.

I have used the regular HiFlo for a while now wihtout incident.  I was using the Baldwin and the PerfForm, but I like the HiFlo construction better. I'll be cutting into the RC model soon.

That is what I've been told, but I haven't been able to confirm.
