    '84 125m air filter.... which one???

    The boys need an air filter for the 125m.
    Ive searched them out...
    I see the yellow foam one for about $10+ shipping
    all the way to a fluted paper one for as much as $60

    will the paper fluted filter fit over the filter screen support thing...??
    it the paper K&N better?? do they replace the filter screen support as well??
    are the foam ones better or just as good???

    $ is an issue for 10 and 12 year old boys... but so is a ruined motor...

    what do you think....???

    Get the foam filter and if its not pre-oiled then oil it correctly and put it over the support and ride on... I never trust those paper or k&n type filters, do they flow more air? Of course... Do they flow more dirt? Of course!! I have proof to that statement.
