i have a 2010 rts premiere limited and am having trouble finding the correct size k+n air filter....the filter for the rt will not fit it.

thanks ,,,i now know that k + n doesnt make a filter yet for the rts. i guess the next step is a green filter but will i have the size problem with it also

is there a web page or phone number for access to a green filter??

found out that k + n does not make a filter for the premiere not enough people want them so non were manufactured. now i have to find another good filter for it...bummer

Not sure about yours but I just ordered one from my dealer. It cost me around $50.
My only concern is how much of a pain its going to be to install.

$50.00 for an air filter from BRP ? !!! Pricey I would say!

Might look at following site for more reasonable prices on parts. Air filter for an RT SE goes for $28.99 + shipping. Over $99 and shipping is free. I ordered a body panel 26 Sep and was notified yesterday its on the way via Fedex. One week; thats good service.

Are we still talking about a K&N air filter? I'm not sure on what the final price was, just that in my mind it was under $50.00 for the K&N.

rcdurango: sorry, I misunderstood. Assumed that since you were buying from a BRP dealer you were getting an OEM. $50 for just about any K&N is in the ballpark.

I have to take it back! Picked up my new K & N filter yesterday and guess what. It didn't fit! Sometime it's amazing to me, Buy parts and other things to go on RT-S time and time again. Go to dealer to buy a filter and they order one for the RS. I was told they (K & N) has not yet made a filter for the RT. Do they know how much work it is to just get to the filter? Kinda pisses me off. Has anyone gotten this type of filter for the RT?
Dealer is a DorK.

ESI (site sponsor) sells a Green Filter reusable filter for the RT.

I installed a Green filter. Same type as a K&N. Works and fits fine.

The oil filter in a harley Buell is the same as in all spyders. Try your local HD dealer

are you sure about the Buel filter? the RT and the RS are different filters.

not only are the rt and rs different ... the rts is different from the other models

ahh I see he posted OIL FILTER. this thread is about AIR FILTER.

the RT and RTS should be the same AIR FILTER

the RS and RSS are different then the RT/RTS model AIR FILTERS.

I think the only aftermarket now for the RT/RTS spyders is the green filter. just wish it was RED so I could use the K&N supplies I have for all my other vehicles.

Good to know. I will have to order a green filter. I enjoy taking the Tupperware off again.
