I'm sticking with my paper gimmicks. I just dont care enough to spend the 100 bones. And I'm lazy. I order my K&N filters on the net and sit on my duff till the mail man drops them off at the front door.
Old off and in the trash, new on. No cleaning. Again, I'm lazy.

The only filter tool worth owning.

Have on. Still jam a screw driver through the filter.

Yep, I should have mentioned, that's always plan B.

I disagree...I use filter pliers to take the old ones off. My bike is set up so I don't have to remove any fairings to change the oil. If I tried to use a cap style wrench with a ratchet, I'd have to remove body parts...no thanks. Plus I never have had to use a screw driver...I can can clamp down as hard as I please.

Every fucking filter should have a nut welded on top. Really, how much more would it cost, $0.05? $0.10?
