This is K&N's washable replacement air filter for the crossplane YZF-R1 and the MT-10 built on it, part number YA-1015. K&N lists it for the 2015–2019 YZF-R1 and R1M, the 2016–2018 R1S, and the 2016–2021 MT-10 (sold in the US as the FZ-10 for 2017). It replaces Yamaha's element 2CR-14451-00.
Check your year. K&N does not list this filter for the YZF-R1 or R1M from 2020 on, so it is not offered for those bikes here.
It is a molded filter shaped to drop into the stock airbox in place of the paper element. K&N states that fuel-management changes are not typically required to run it. This is K&N's street replacement filter, not a race-spec design.
The filter arrives oiled and ready to fit, and at service time it is washed and re-oiled rather than thrown away.
Key Technology & Design
Oiled cotton gauze media
Layers of cotton gauze treated with a tacking agent that holds dirt. K&N states the media is designed to raise airflow for improved horsepower, throttle response and acceleration while protecting the engine.
Shaped for the R1 airbox
A tapered, application-specific shape with its own seal, so it seats in the stock housing with no adapters.
No fuel-management changes typically needed
K&N states this filter does not typically require fuel-management modifications.
Washable and reusable
Clean and re-oil rather than replace. K&N calls for 0.77 oz (23 ml) of filter oil per re-oiling.
