K&amp\\;N recharge kit...just go easy with the oil or you will leak all over the side of the bike.

RE: big sucker question

S100 or Simple Green both work well, but follow the correct procedure: Spray cleaner, let sit for 10 min., rinse with slow-running water from the inside of the filter element, gently sling the excess water out but don't try to blow-dry it with a compressor, then let dry overnight before oiling.
