          It really goes to show, you get what you pay for. The construction/materials are head and shoulders above the Emgos. PLUS, they're easier to put on the damn carbs! The emgos were a pain in the ass.

            they're still are pretty cheap pod filter considering
            the foam uni filters i was using were around
            $30 ea, and the genuine K&N filters are much more
            again.

              Hi Lucky,
              be sure the pod and carb are squeaky clean on install.
              Mr Careless left some lube on one carb and the effin' pod fell off in the street 500 miles from home.

                  Hi Lucky,
                  not too bad. When I got home I nicked one off my son's XS750 that he was rebuilding in my garage.
                  He added a replacement onto his next parts order from MikesXS so no downtime and no shipping costs.
                  I got off easy.
