Unleash the full potential of your side-by-side with the K&N High-Flow Replacement Drop-In Air Filter (Part No. YA-0116), custom-engineered specifically for the 2016-2017 Yamaha YXZ1000R.

Best of all, it eliminates the endless cycle of buying disposable filters. Simply wash, re-oil, and reinstall it to enjoy a lifetime of rugged, off-road performance.
