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 air—these are all well and good. But none of them create a merry atmosphere of insouciance and bonhomie quite like a revving motorcycle.

But the K&N is only $10.58

http://www.amazon.com/KN-153-Powersports-High-Performance-Filter/dp/B000E2CVEM/ref=pd_sim_263_4?ie=UTF8&dpID=41eieGsqlML&dpSrc=sims&preST=_AC_UL320_SR260%2C320_&refRID=0A1RSQPM07C9AA9XE7Y1

What's interesting is that Amazon says the HiFlo doesn't fit my 821 while the K&N does  Huh?

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.
