New Airfilter in Aus

rcrich68 · 07-29-2017, 09:11 AM

Hi Guys,

I am trying to find a K&N airfilter in Australia, if any of you guys here in Aus can suggest a supplier or an alternative I would love to hear where you got yours from.

I've heard this K&N filter fits our GZ250. I've not had a chance to try it out in person though due to the carb/jetting work needed.

Yep...Same filter as the GS500.

Thanks for the quick replies guys. I couldn't find an Australian supplier so I ordered the KN Filter from the link, will see how long it takes to arrive in Australia from the US.

Quick update, air filter has arrived already from the US - only took 4 days. Any one in Australia compare that to the snail pace of australia post.

Now to go speak to my mechanic mate about doing the carbie work for me and install the 16 tooth front sprocket that arrived yesterday.

Update - put the airfilter and carbie work done. Not the front sprocket at the moment. Rode it down the highway in 30 to 40km/h winds, previously would have struggled to do 80 kmh - sat on 90 to nearly 100kmh into a strong headwind/crosswinds. Much better to ride.

Since this though, I have a confession to make.....I still have my little marauder, but I have purchased a Yamaha Bold for myself. The Marauder will now be used by my wife when she gets her learners permit later this month.
