Default AMSOIL Ea Air filters-dry filter option

Everyone's familiar with the oil, wasn't sure if all new that they have air filters for many of these bikes as well.
Here's the general page that talks about the filters themselves:
Ea air filters

Here's the page with pics for a better look at a match:

I just installed the Stage 1 kit and have ordered the EaAM25 to give it a whirl.
If any interest, check with me on pricing, these are retail posted on their site.

We used them on several bikes all last year was going to use them this year but got a discount on the HD ones due to buying a new bike so we bought case of those. This year.

The only issue we had with the filter was the HD wrench doesn't fit them we had to improvise a little or you need to buy the amsoil wrench for like 2.50.

Are you talking the oil filters? You're right, the wrench doens't quite fit.
Suppose I should post a link to those too. Slipped my mind.
oil filters
Here's the online application guide to find the correct product numbers for your bike.

I used one last year before I went to Doherty power pacc. It is a decent filter but was over $50 and really I could not see an improvement over the K&N filter and the K&N could be bought for less $. It did appear to have better construction than the SE non oil air filter.

They do cost a little. Supposed to be the same performance and air flow as a K&N. Just an option for those who don't want an oiled filter

I used a Ea air filter on my Dodge Cummins and it worked great while it was new. The vacuum cleaning method does not clean the filter very well. After four cleanings and 40,000 miles, the filter did not flow any more air than my stock filter. The filter looks like the dirt on the pleats have been wet and will not vaccum or blow out with air. I was using a stock airbox so everything was dry. Just another expensive disposible filter unless Amway comes up with another way of cleaning it.

I thought the vacuuming was hokey as well. I could not see how that would have done a good job of cleaning.
