   driving along the road and i start to hear a weird noise and then a rattle i notice sumthing in the mirror and i see my air filter bounce 3 times and under the car behind and then crushed by a bus. so my question which air filter would you all recommend for my VTR?(prefrebly one that is securely fitted)

    eek .. runs to check...
    
    looks like its working now
    
    Personally I'd get either the Raceland for a cost effective performer or the BMC for one that fits and is made really well.
    
    The Green ones we are taking off the site now due to problems with supply and the fact that they don't represent good value or perform any better than the Raceland.
