Default Air Filter System Identification...

Hi all,

I was wondering if there is any way I can tell what air filter is installed in my bike. I have a used 2003 Softail Standard that I have just ordered new pipes for. I want to installa high flow filter system at the same time if I don't already have one. Is there a good way of identifying what I have?

Thanks.

If it's a paper filter and not oiled, chances are it's a stock HD filter. Generally,high flow filters are oiled. K&N oil isred.
