Ordered this air filter, didn't think it would increase horsepower, but I was wrong. Added about 6 MPH to my GoPed Bigfoot Snap On Edition.

I bought this air filter for my son's Go-Ped Sport. The filter came with all necessary parts and bolted on nicely (10 minutes for complete R&R). Finish and quality is good. I have K&N air filters in my cars, so I just use the spray-on cleaner and oil already on hand for that application, which works perfectly (available at pretty much any automotive store).

Only problem (and thus the three star rating) is that the choke is integrated with the OEM air filter (not on the carb) and this Baja filter has no integrated choke. End result: no choke once this filter is installed. We live in Florida (warm weather year round), so it's not a huge problem (although my 11-year-old son now has to struggle to start it when cold). But if you live in even a remotely cold climate, you might want to rethink this filter. Maybe somebody makes a flat choke valve I don't know about that sandwiches between this filter and the carb.

The filter needs to be oiled for maximum air cleaning ability of course. The chroming is very durable and extremely well done. I had a problem with the size of the holes drilled in the velocity stack, however my application was not a goped engine so i assume i had thicker bolts than it was designed for. Shipping was not very fast, but it got here all right so i am happy with the seller
