Default Big Sucker filter

Does anyone know if they make a filter that fits the stage 1 AN big sucker that isn't red? I'm guessing that's a K&N filter that comes with it? I'm not a fan of the red filter as it won't go with anything on my bike, and i run an open filter with no cover. thanks

Arlen Ness offers a black pre filter that covers the filter. It is water resistant slips on and off very easy. Got mine from JP Cycles.

the big sucker filter isn't actually red..it's the oil used on K&N filters that makes it red. at least..at the end of each season, mine isn't red anymore until i "recharge" it... now whether they make difference colored oils, i dont know.

That looks exactly like the stock replacement filter i have on my stock air cleaner right now. Will that filter fit on the big sucker air cleaner? I would think that the stock replacement filter would be inferior to a high flow filter correct?
