[spy622]

any body got experince what will happen if i late change the rubber mounting after it spoil...

 

which rubber mounting???....u will experience that your bike is unstable...if spoil till very bad then might damage your chassis overtime but it will really take abit of time lah

is it true that the Runner must be ridden almost everyday? was advised by some mech that the battery charging capabilities of the Runner is not very efficient. hence gotta ride the bike everyday for the battery to maintain charge.

hi guys..

anyone know how much is VXR on the road??

will there be 08 version coming out???

[Scooter_Lover]

Hey guys. Just my 5 cents worth. Why you guys like to change to knn filters?

Maybe you guys haven really research enough about the other filters around huh.

[1Seth1]

Have to agree that its a good filter lah.. KNN is one of the better filters they

have out there..

[Scooter_Lover]

well true its a better filter out there but its not the most suitable for runner in my opinion

[chanz86]

hihi all. just pas my TP, wanted to get a runner.. how much does it cost to get a first hand runner now??

[spy622]

well true its a better filter out there but its not the most suitable for runner in my opinion

 

wat would be a good fliter in your opinion???...as wat I know there r not many runners using the k&n filters

[evilboi]

depends on how u use it..both got itz pros and cons

 

so what are the pros and cons? need some enlightenment before changing to either one

[ark.ver2]

im kinda using a malossi open pod.. =) what i heard frm a mechanic is that k&n filters they are more to the max speed, while malossi open pod is more to the pick up..

[martell1981]

hi guys,newly joined runner gang here.any outings recently?

[Scooter_Lover]

lol that mechanic you've talked to dont think he knows shyt about filters

 

not saying i'm a pro myself but have been trial and error for the past few months on the different filters myself. malossi might be proven but still its a sponge filter. over long period of time sure wacked. the sponge sure breakdown into small pieces and then get stuck in your carb. then spend money cleaning carbs and stuff.. and the look of it sticking outta your bike like a **** doesnt really appeal to me

 

polini has its own blue sponge filter as well so same problem

 

as for the bullet filters haven tried it. but heard from people that the installation wasnt good and the whole "pipe" flew out while travelling.. scary

 

knn tried before.. initially thought it was better than the big names but still the lag was bad. top speed wasnt even there... response on acceleration and top end was horrible.

 

still got some other filters out there like some funny filters with funny shape and no names so i didnt bother...

 

so far my best option would be for hurricane filters.. best outta them all.. easy to clean summore. yup just my opinion. i've tried one filter for about a month so yeah now kinda got a few filters hanging at home on show case exhibit. no offence to anyone out there but just to share my experience with you guys.

I thought hurricane filters works on the same concept as the K&N??

I had also tried a few filters b4 and still to 1 filter which cant be found locally for a few years.

 

I feel that when choosing filters the key points will be the shape, size and material...n when fixing the filter, the positioning is 1 key point to look into

 

Just a suggestion...I hav not see any riders tried using the TwinAir Filters..this is a famous brand with many dirt bikers..might be worth trying..of coz forget about going to the shops n say "do u hav the filter for runner"..find out the correct sizes require and part number b4 proceeding
