dgk30 Posted August 15, 2014 Report Share Posted August 15, 2014 Has anybody used these UNI pods? They aren't k&n syle, looks more like a foam style, you can see them in the link below. I ride sand dunes and was thinking about ditching the airbox and going with pods. I came across these and wanted some input as they are cheaper than k&n and want see if they were worth Trying or not.

tdod101 Posted August 15, 2014 Report Share Posted August 15, 2014 Just get the k&n with outerwears, done! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sheerider11 Posted August 15, 2014 Report Share Posted August 15, 2014 Had UNI pods. Wasn't a fan. The foam clogged so fast it was un real. K&N knock offs are garbage. I have a set on the women's bike and they need to be cleaned and oiled 2x as much as my genuine K&N. They still let dust through that mine don't.

dgk30 Posted August 15, 2014 Author Report Share Posted August 15, 2014 Even with an outerwear they clogged? I would think they would be alright with an outerwear Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jriffe23 Posted August 15, 2014 Report Share Posted August 15, 2014 Like he said, if you want pods, get actual K&N it will be $70 well spent. I also have genuine K&N pods on my bike. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bennett131 Posted August 15, 2014 Report Share Posted August 15, 2014 I'm with these guys...buy k&n with outerwears. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dgk30 Posted August 15, 2014 Author Report Share Posted August 15, 2014 Sounds like we have a decision, k&n it is! Thanks for the input Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dgk30 Posted August 15, 2014 Author Report Share Posted August 15, 2014 Having said that I Still think the UNI's would be fine, sand is so coarse it should be the least of worry when talking about filtration. A two stage uni and outerwear should be just fine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bennett131 Posted August 15, 2014 Report Share Posted August 15, 2014 Why ask for input if you already had your mind made up? Everyone told you k&n and you still want the uni foam filters? And you don't put outerwears on foam filters...at least I've never seen it done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bennett131 Posted August 15, 2014 Report Share Posted August 15, 2014 If a pair of k&n filters break the bank I'd sell the banshee asap. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dgk30 Posted August 15, 2014 Author Report Share Posted August 15, 2014 I have no problem spending the money on K&N, and I agree they make a great filter, is it the best? debatable, do you pay for the name? for the most part yes but all in all its going to do the job. I just couldnt help myself in giving my two cents on thinking a uni would do a good job in the sand as well, and for half the price, anyway ill most likey get the K&N's as they seem to have proven themesleves.

Piediddy Posted August 15, 2014 Report Share Posted August 15, 2014 Just cut an ole pair of women's stockings and rubber band them over the bells of the carb. Sand is so Coarse should be fine. Prolly coast ya $3. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Piediddy Posted August 15, 2014 Report Share Posted August 15, 2014 Seriously though there is a reason everyone runs K&N. you get what you pay for and I have always ran K&N on my Mustangs, trucks, Quads etc. Never liked any foam filters. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sheerider11 Posted August 15, 2014 Report Share Posted August 15, 2014 K&N isn't just a name. Go buy the knock off K&N. Then you can come asking why your cylinders look like the pistons were made of rocks. There has been literally hundreds of test to discredit K&N. No one can. They have tested AEM,UNI,K&N, and a few others. K&N had the best filtration and flow hands down. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
