    Just a quick tutorial to replacing the stock AF with the SE Stage I Kit. Pretty straight forward, but helps to see how to remove the black bracket on the throttle body.

    [​IMG]
    1. Remove Air Filter cover (8MM Hex)

    [​IMG]
    2. Remove 3 Torx screaws (T27)

    [​IMG]
    3. Remove brace bracket, exposing the air filter

    [​IMG]
    4. Slowly remove air filter; releasing vent hoses. Play close attention to not damage the gasket on the back of the filter.

    5. Remove vent hoses from Breather bolts

    [​IMG]
    6. Remove Breather bolts (7/16" Deep socket)

    [​IMG]
    7. Note Black (metal) brace mounter to top of the throttle body. This must be removed to allow proper fitment of the SE Stage I kit.

    [​IMG]
    8. In order to remove the mention bracket you'll want to raise your fuel tank. Remove rear tank bolts (1/2" socket). Raise tank approximately 2"

    [​IMG]
    9. Difficult to see, but I am using a 90 degree 3/16" Allen wrench to loosen/remove the bolts holding the bracket in place.

    [​IMG]
    10. Install SE backing plate per provided instructions.

    [​IMG]
    11. Install SE Air Filter per provided instructions. Note: Still unsure if provided AF is supposed to be oiled or not; am awaiting word from Jamie@Fuelmoto.com

    [​IMG]
    12. Install stock cover. Note: Remove the rubber gasket on the stock filter cover.

    BTW, if you don't want to spend the $ for the K&N cleaning kit
    just get the oil...

    To clean it, use simple green, fill a bucket with warm water and simple
    green, dunk the filter and let it soak if really filthy.

    In 20 min you'll have a nice clean filter to oil rinse from the back side and
    re-0il and don't over oil, people think they have to spray every square
    inch of the filter, that stuff spreads so oil it lightly and just go back in 1/2 hour
    and spot touch up... You'll use half the oil and have none of the mess
