I use the Ness, it is a tidy install and has a washable, oiled filter media ( like a K&N).
The version with the chrome backing plate nicely complements the chrome highlights on the motor.
I got mine from easternpc on ebay, $115 shipped.
the screaming eagle has a paper filter, costs more and takes a minute or 2 longer to install.
either can provide air flow beyond what your motor could ever use.
make sure you order the version for your '11, --- 08 and up

tman. do those things still cost $650? I wanted one of those and would have one on my scoot right now but they were listed at $650 when they first came out. Too rich for my wallet.

I have a Screamin Eagle backing plate with a K&N filter element. Works pretty well.
I read somewhere on here that the Ness setup works better and you end up with less blow-back of oil because of the mounting setup and O rings and bolts being sized a little differant???
...dont know if thats a fact or if the oil spray/blowback is even an issue on your bike.
