I was thinking about just getting a K&N filter with an outerwear if they make them. The stock airbox seems like it doesnt let much air in through that little hole going out the back.

Do you still have to clean the K&N after every ride or two?

You'll probably have to clean the K&N air filter more than the stock one if you have that one still because the K&N doesnt have a cover or anything its just a filter that you put on the back off your carb and get rid of you stock airbox and filter. If you have a UNI filter on the back of your carb you'll probably have to clean the K&N just as much.
