ROTW: mtb_rider's 1988 FJ62

I think there was a little difference. Not huge, but noticeable.

like gas mileage or acceleration or ???

A little bit accel, maybe a slight mileage improvement, though I don't notice myself getting any better mileage then anybody else running a paper filter. Like I said, it felt like there was a little improvement, but it may be as much mental in thinking there was improvement, more than actual results. It's arguable. I always like running them. They really aren't terribly priced. I think I paid around 45 bucks for it from Schmucks, and being's that paper filters go for about 10-15 bucks, it pays for itself in a few years cuz you can just wash it out, reoil it (a recharge kit that comes with a bottle of cleaner and oil, enough to do god knows how many washes, I'd say 8-10, is only about 11 bucks), and put it right back in.

thanks, that it is.
i've read so much crap about pros & cons. my 60 is mainly a daily driver so i'm leaning towards the K&N. still a little skeptical because some cruiser heads that know their stuff talk down on them. won't mention any names tho...
love to see white 60 series rigs! too many poo brown ones like mine.

oh, another question, is there some reason you don't have tinted windows on the drivers & passengers side?

 

[mtb_rider]

That's the way it was when I got it. The tint needs to be re-done, and when I have it done, I plan on getting the front doors done to match.

I did a write up on my dual battery install, and all the pics are there. Check it out if you want.
