Give us a call for your filter needs. The filter we spec now for the B2 is like the K&N but has more pleats per inch and is an exact fit for the unit unlike the K&N which requires extra gasketing. Call me at 866-507-2648!!!
Thanks
Steve

I just picke one of those up using google's buy it here feature. It was about $45 delivered. I trimmed it up a tiny bit, used permatex orange to glue it into the horn. It wasn't sealing perfect so I cut the permiter gasket off the old filter and used contact cement to glue it to the front half of the vararam. Seals great and just remove horn to clean and oil!

This is exactly what I did with the K&N filter, except I did not glue it into the horn, but I have been thinking about doing just that, but yes, I too cut the old filter apart and used it as a perimiter gasket ... looked pretty good to me.

You can see the glue I used, this is a glue for rubber, only the foam glued to the filter.
