Air filter help

Post by Harrysf707 »

Ok,so out of the 2 air filters that I bought so far, emigo and some other brand do not fit into my fzr. So now I'm trying to buy OEm, only problem is that it is $68.74 before taxes from the yamaha dealership. I found some on ebay from the UK, would these fit? UK model is listed as 3HE-8 and mine is a 3HE. Is there any difference? here is the ebay link.

Would you have to change jetting? Because according to K&N these "Hi-flow" filters are supposed to let more air in...I still have stock jets. Would that be a problem?

I haven't just changed the air filter, so I'm not sure. That being said, I don't believe the extra air from the "hi-flow" would make too much of a difference. The reason I like them is they are cleanable.

Yeah, I ended up getting the K&N one off of Amazon for $40. And if it turn out to run a little lean, then so be it. It running retardedly rich all of a sudden.

-Thanks!
