Superior Performance Air Filter for 2014-2016 Yamaha MT-07 & FZ-07 Twin from K&N
- Apr 14, 2015
The Yamaha MT-07, or FZ-07 as it is called in the United States, is a significant new model in the Yamaha Motor Company’s vehicle line up. The 689cc parallel twin cylinder engine powered naked sport bike was released just after the MT-09 / FZ-09 triple. Yamaha Product Planning manager Oliver Grill said the MT-07 / FZ-07 was designed to "Make the intuitive side of riding more fun." Grill went on to explain “The bike is more casual, feels cool also at lower speeds. Yet any speed, any gear, if you open up the throttle you will immediately feel the power delivery and enjoy the sound." The MT-07 / FZ-09 power delivery is attributed to the inline twin engine's crankshaft designed with a 270 degree offset. The two cylinders fire at an irregular interval in order to harmonize the engine, resulting in a more immediate response and feeling of torquiness for the rider. Here to help boost horsepower, torque, and throttle response of the 2014, 2015 and 2016 Yamaha parallel twin MT-07 & FZ-07 models is a world famous reusable air filter from K&N. The superior airflow offered by a K&N motorcycle replacement air filter can result in superior performance. A K&N washable air filter is different from the stock filter in that K&N uses cotton gauze filter media woven to exacting specifications. Cotton, by nature, is more breathable than the paper or foam media used for most motorcycle air filters. Getting more air into your engine with less restriction can increase performance, acceleration, and throttle response.
Additionally, the pleated design, combined with the depth loading nature of K&N cotton gauze air filters allows for increased air filter service intervals. A K&N cotton gauze air filter is designed to be repeatedly washed and reused with one of the K&N Recharger air filter service kits. Recharger, 99-5000, includes 12 fluid ounces of air filter cleaner and a 6.5 ounce aerosol bottle of air filter oil for quick and easy application. Recharger, 99-5050, differs in that it includes an 8 ounce squeeze bottle of K&N filter oil for a more precise application. K&N replacement air filters are designed to hit that “sweet spot” of superior airflow and superior performance without sacrificing filtration or engine protection. K&N performs filtration efficiency testing following the internationally recognized ISO 5011 protocol to guarantee that our air filters will provide high airflow without sacrificing engine protection.
