Air Filter - Honda vs Emgo

I asked a couple folks about using an Emgo filter, as the Honda filter is $45, and the Emgo filter is $21 shipped...

So, considering my current financial state, I bought an Emgo filter (I also buy Motion Pro cables... The HORROR!)

Below are pictures of my Honda air filter, and the new Emgo filter beside it.

It appears the rumors were true and thr Emgo filter looks to be made in the same factory as the Honda filter. They look nearly identical!

I have an EMGO in mine. Appearance and operation are indistinguishable from OEM.

Wow - I forgot how much these filters cost.

But I guess $21 for a season or $42, if ur really putting on the miles isn't bad.

How many miles are you getting with these filters?

I know lots here don't like/use the K&N, but I've had mine since new and it works fine. So I guess I've actually saved some $ for once with the moto.
