Why do u need a Fuel filter? Or do u mean air filter of K&N?

I think the K&N RC1060 goes on most bikes...Not sure of the cost.

I think if you are very much in need of an petrol tank fuel filter ( that is what i understand as all bikes come with petrol filter before the carburettor) i have seen in old Yezdi you can very well shop in second hand market and modify it to suit in your tank.

well we have the fuel filters under the K&N brand so if someone has info on which model will be suitable for a 150cc bike, it will help a lot thanks in advance!

Not used by many though...I guess the best thing to do is fill in 91-octane petrol and save money about to be spent on the fuel filter!

I agree totally with turbo v12, you can even use SHELL petrol as i use it for my Unicorn for past two years and i can vouch for the good results.

dudes i always fill in the speed (93 oct) or the speed 97, must say the engine has not been sounding very smooth compared to the shell super i tried, the shell petrol bunk is a little too far(6-7kms),and the speed i can get near my place, well will try and tank up the shell from now.

have a one doubt though, what are the octane levels of shell and shell super?

i also want to try the K&N fuel filter as i had heard the range starts from 500 onwards dont know if its true, so will just see the sizes in person and decide, will post the results if i am able to get one here in hyderabad!
