I do think the extra air filter works but at higher than cruise RPM's and not necessarily at lower demand part throttle operation.

| You will hear some noise at idle but the power gains were worth it to me. And I like the noise, reminds me of the old cowl induction cars. |

There is a plate you will have to take off and then replace it with the filter. I got mine from Ness, I also like hearing the sound of the air being sucked in. I also do not have the fuel controller on my bike, I do however have a PC V and I opened up the exhaust system as well and put the bike on a dyno to help with the backfiring issues. It was well worth it as well, it increased the H.P. about 10%. Good luck on whatever you do. |

Posts: 179 CARTAGENA Spain | In principle not plan to install the VFC III, but with the answers given have many doubts RHODE TRIP TO INSTALL THE UPPER AIR FILTER IF THIS CAN CAUSE A BREAK IN MY MOTORCYCLE |

| I have the top ness air filter with NO controller or down load. The bike runs strong and it does NOT run lean un less 45 mph is lean.

Posts: 599 New Mexico | I've been thinking of doing this, too. Does the regular stock filter work? Or do you have to order a different one?
Does anyone know the filter part numbers?

Posts: 3773 Pittsburgh, PA | the most recent post from lloyds mentioned a NEW top air filter to come.. one that is not as Noisey... to be honest, i didnt reinstall my top air filter on my 2011 because i thought it was noisey! i not only hear the air being sucked in (which i didnt mind) but i heard all the mechanical noises as well. ticking etc. everything was amplified by adding the top air filter. and it must be true since lloyds is making a NEW top air filter and mentions this one will be more quiet... for me personally when i added the filter and turned on the vision for the first time i thought something was wrong with my engine! then when i would turn the bike on for others. that was one of the first things i would hear.. WOW THATS A NOISEY BIKE. or WHATS THAT NOISE? is that normal? |
