Get the K&N, it expensive but worth it in durability and ease of cleaning.

errm, it may not be by itself based on those two parameters. I got one that's way more durable and way more easier to clean. Also for about $45.00 USD.

Uni is better. K&N is a joke, lost faith with them on the two strokes.

Those with the uni filter, did it come with the plastic frame around it or do you have to reuse the original OEM one?

ok, I see it does not come with the plastic cage, Do i put the old one on there, or does it go in without that?

Put the old frame on it. It's too flimsy without it.

frame is needed or else it will deform.

It's subjective but it does flow a lot better and is less prone to clogging up faster than the OE one.
