KNOW THIS:
Unless it's being matched to an aftermarket end-to-end exhaust and a jetkit, you won't get any performance boost, and the OEM filter does a better job of filtering inbound air (a far better job if the K&N is dryed out or particularly dirty).
Good Luck!

Cyberpoet is correct. K&N air filters actually help you lose horsepower. We have never dyno ran a katana with and without one, but on other bikes, the bike does better with the cheapo air filter. I know on an SV a K&N causes a hp loss of 2-3 hp. Just something to think about before you dish out all that $$$$.

K&N........$70
Jet Kit.......$100-$110, depends on which mfg, Factory Pro of Dyno Jet
Exhaust system.............Vance & Hines SS2R, about $420
You CAN just go Jet kit and exhaust system and forego the K&N, but I like the above combo the best on Kats.
Oh, and I usually add a V&H Ignition Advancer.......about $45.
I've only installed about 20 so far this year on Kats.............and about 25 or so last year. 90% of my work is Katanas.................I've owned over 70 Katanas - you think I know anything about them?
Is there such a thing as TOO MANY BIKES?
Can you go TOO FAST on a bike?
