goldwing k&n air filter.

 hello anyone out there put one in a gl 1500.
I just did and noticed a little better throttle response and top end snap.
it does have a hitch in the gettyup when snapping the throttle on hard
though and was curious if anyone has rejetted etc.
TIA

K&N's do have less air restriction than paper filters, but...

If you oil the filter too much, it acts like a choke and makes the
mixture
too rich.

It takes a few days for the excess oil to dry up or absorb into the
fabric or whatever it does.

I don't use K&N filter oil, I just wash the filter in kerosene and
that's oily enough.

 
Check with WOTI one of the better wing web sites. Ignore krusty he
doesn't know what he's talking about. I mean would you trust a moron
that NEVER changes brake fluid in 20 years? I wouldn't, especially
him.
