Can-Am Maverick Turbo & Polaris RZR 900 Side-by-Sides K&N Air Filters
- 12 Jan 2016
Before the Polaris Ranger RZR was introduced in 2008 the side by side ATV market was dominated by the Yamaha Rhino. However, side by sides like the Yamaha Rhino were primarily intended as utility all-terrain vehicles popular with farmers, hunters & outdoorsmen. The introduction of the Polaris Ranger RZR in 2008 spawned an all new market segment and the evolution of the sport side by side ATV has progressed in rapid bursts ever since. The Side by Side ATV market is one of the hottest & fastest evolving Powersports segments. Nearly every major ATV manufacturer is fighting for a piece of the pie, and they continually try to one-up each other. This has resulted in constantly updated and newly released side by side ATV models. Luckily, K&N Filters is keeping up all this change with air filters for a couple of the hottest sport side by sides on the market; the Can-Am Maverick Turbo & Polaris RZR 900.
K&N replacement high-flow air filters, number CM-9715 for Can-Am Maverick models and PL-8715 for Polaris RZR 900 models are designed to fit inside the stock air filter box of the side by side models listed below without any need for modifications. K&N replacement air filters are made with specially woven cotton gauze. Because cotton, by nature, is more breathable than paper, K&N replacement air filters can flow more air than a typical paper air filter. More air can result in increased performance and improved throttle response With a K&N replacement side by side air filter an increase in airflow does not come at the expense of filtration efficiency and engine protection. K&N engineers placed filtration efficiency and dirt retention at the top of the priority list when developing a replacement air filter for Can-Am Maverick Turbo & Polaris RZR 900 models. Both filters use design elements above and beyond standard on-road replacement air filters. K&N used two extra layers, totaling six, of special tight weave cotton gauze sandwiched between wire mesh. Six layers of tight weave pleated cotton filter media allows these filters to outflow the stock air filter, hold more dirt for long service intervals, and offer excellent filtration efficiency. K&N performs filtration efficiency testing following the ISO 5011 protocol with ISO coarse test dust to guarantee that our air filters will provide high airflow without sacrificing engine protection. Calling this test dust coarse is almost preposterous, as 22% of the dust is rated at 10 microns or less. To provide perspective, a human blood cell is typically between 6 and 8 microns across. In the real world, dust like this can be found in the notorious silt beds of the Mexican Baja peninsula.
Besides increased performance, K&N replacement high-flow air filters have the ability to be washed & reused time and again. Many newer model side by side ATVs are equipped with disposable air filters from the factory. With the kind of dusty conditions that side by sides are operated in, the ability to wash and reuse a K&N air filter means that it will pay for itself over time. K&N high-flow oiled cotton gauze air filters can be washed and made like new using one of the K&N Recharger air filter service kits. Larger size Power Kleen K&N air filter cleaner and K&N air filter oil are available for side by side owners who need to service their air filters more often.
