Bargain BMC!!!

Just about to change oil, filters etc. Normally keep everything OEM but came across this BMC. At 36 quids its the same price as OEM. Say ABS but will fit all 08 onwards cbrs.

BMC Air Filter FM527/04 Honda CBR 1000 RR ABS 09 11 | eBay

 

Just make sure its the road version as they sell a race 1 aswell

 

Yes it's definitely the road version. Confirmed this before purchase. Read somewhere the Race need more frequent cleaning to provide the same amount of protection or something like that. Chris who manages the ebay sales is a top guy, used my Iphone to buy the item and for some reason it chose an echeque to pay - with 7 days clearing!!!. Phoned up Chris and he sorted it on spot. Items are Next day delivery for free!. Can't wait to fix and hear that induction roar

 

It'll sound exactly the same as OEM if it's housed in the standard airbox surely?

 

I've never put one on a sports bike before so you may be right, but my previous nakeds have had a much louder/snortier induction once fitted.

 

Just do the airbox flapper mod if you want more noise, it's free! The performance gain is negligible.

 

Once my warranty is up I'll do that and the exhaust flapper too!

 

Thanks for this post, I got one for the CB1K half price after reading this
