Is new air intake worth it on HO103?
The intake on the High Output 103 seems to be vastly superior to the older "football" style intake on the previous 103. I've been looking at the FM stage one and the HD stage one that both reuse the stock air cover and debating on whether a K&N filter on the stock setup would be just as effective. Thoughts?

As far as any performance gains, don't know. But is a better filter than the stock HD filter.

Yes I will be doing all that. I have slip ons - working on the rest. However, still wondering if a different intake is completely necessary based on what I stated above. Will not be doing anything above stage one at this point.

Plus a K&N filter is $75 alone. Getting a whole kit is $150 including a filter.

They do flow more air. And along with that more dirt. It's an oily rag between two screens. Pretty common to see increased silica (dirt) in oil analysis samples when using that style of filter.

If you are going to do slip ons and not cut the cat out, you don't have to do anything with the AC. If you are going to cut the cat and add a fuel enhancer, along with slip ons, then a high flow air cleaner will give you more flow and good looks. Depends on how cool you want your bike to look and how much money you have.
