Just put a uni on my bike. Fits good, actually easier to put in than the stocker. Not much else to say, it's an airfilter.

I have both, use both, and like both. The Twin-Air may be a little easier to stuff into the airbox, but it's not like the Uni is all that hard. The construction integrity seems equally good, and the performance seems the same. If it's really a war concerning foam filters, then I don't see why anyone but these two should even show up. Flip a coin maybe?

Dan, but we all know how lazy you are, hence the "No Toil"....

No, I admit to not having used the No Toil. The name just suggested a slackardly lack of effort.

Hey, I'm heading out to CO next Tuesday morning. You still have time to load up that acrobatic KLX of yours and meet up. Man...I'm so ready to get out of this Texas heat. It's been unbelieveable this summer. My apologies to Al Gore.

I run no-toil 95% of the time.

Mostly because they're $15 and I can get 3 or 4 wash/re-oils out of them.
