[QUOTE="kmanflyer, post: 1422653, member: 91752"] I lost faith in K&N after this, [URL="https://www.knfilters.com/recallkn204"]https://www.knfilters.com/recallkn204[/URL] They where banned from some tracks due to failure causing wreck's. Some other models with the spot welded nut outside of the recall had reported failure's. I couldn't get the one I had on my bike off fast enough. Now I have 6 of these POS's that are garbage bound. I could not in good faith even give them away even-though they are not on the recall list. The spot welded nut seamed like a great idea when I bought them. In hind sight it causes a weak spot were failure is possible. I just can't trust them now. YMMV Just open the the box before you buy, or mod the union bolt. In recent year's some oil filter brands are changing ownership and factories like the weather. For example:the 6 POS K&N's I have are made in 3 different factories.[IMG]https://www.fjrforum.com/forum//public/style_emoticons/default/uhoh.gif[/IMG] [/QUOTE]
