jwhitt Posted July 30, 2016 Report Share Posted July 30, 2016 I currently have the stock air box/filter on my '97 Banshee and am thinking of switching to the Pro Flo system. I am curious what you all are using in the sand dunes as far as Foam vs K&N filters. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sheerider11 Posted July 30, 2016 Report Share Posted July 30, 2016 I currently have the stock air box/filter on my '97 Banshee and am thinking of switching to the Pro Flo system. I am curious what you all are using in the sand dunes as far as Foam vs K&N filters.is it normal sand or dusty sand?Dust = foam only Anything else you can use A REAL K&N. Not the cheap knock off Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jwhitt Posted July 30, 2016 Author Report Share Posted July 30, 2016 Normal sand (oceano dunes). I'm beginning to lean towards the Pro Flo uni foam filter. The more I read, the more negatives I'm hearing about KN. I was just curious what others in here thought. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sangheraent Posted July 30, 2016 Report Share Posted July 30, 2016 I was a foam only person. I run no air box on my 250r. Went to the dunes this spring rode for 3 days my filter completely covered in sand. came home took off the filter and there was sand all in the intake tube. bike still has decent compression but now its a ticking time bomb. next time i will have a kN filter with an outerwear for the dunes only.

Strm Trpr Posted July 30, 2016 Report Share Posted July 30, 2016 The elastic in the outerwears stretches out over time. So I safety wire my outerwears to my K&N's. I ride Pismo dunes exclusively! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
