RE: k&n air filter maintenance???
It's all been covered already, these are great filters.
Do NOT over-oil the filter as said above or it will spray oil all along the side of your bike when you ride.
Do NOT use high pressure water or air to dry it or blow out the dirt.
I spray it with the K&N cleaning solution (soapy water is all it probably is), then rinse it in the kitchen sink with HOT water from the inside out.
Re-oil the filter with the miniumum amount needed to make it all a uniform pink color after it's all soaked into the filter medium.
Every 5k-10k is fine for a service interval - alot depends on the environment you live in.
