This is exactly how mine works. I like it.

Proper Filter Installation:

Here is a link to a simple video demonstrating the proper way to attach your Rottweiler Intake System Filter to the CPR Fab base plate. Please take a moment to see how simple it is when done properly.

Just a little off track here but, is the standard airbox with a decent filter in it really that bad? $300 worth of better?

Weird. Posted twice!

$300 for a dynoed 10 hp gain on a superduke seems like a great investment to me. Usually a 10%+ hp increase will cost you a lot more.

299.00 Rottweiler Intake System all KTM Big Twins
10 HP = $30 per HP and - 3.6 Lbs less weight

2000.00 Typical Akropovic Exhaust System, very few models full system
10 HP = $200.00 per HP

You decide...

10 increase over standard? Measured or claimed?

I was in the first wave of the CPR buyers when these hit the market. I didn't buy it for more power. It is a cleanable full size oiled foam filter like I had been wanting since I bought my 950. In extreme dusty conditions, the stock paper filter plugs up in a long weekend. The CPR filter along with quick-remove pre filter is far superior to the stock set up, and also to the uni pre filter set up, which is too small and is a power restrictor.

It is expensive, but you don't have to buy paper filters anymore. Maybe it is not for everyone but it is just what I was needing.

Thanks John. I was looking to purchase one. Just wanted some real world feedback. As I'm sure you agree there's plenty of manufactures making plenty of unsubstantiated claims. I'm not saying that's the case here, but lets face it, few if any company is going to admit there's floors in their design.

CPR guy, I'll volunteer here. Just send me the setup for my 950 SM, and I'll do an install and tell you if there are any issues with it.

You're welcome.
Actually, I'm probably going to buy one of these in the near future. I'm pretty thorough in my install, and I tend not to beat things into place, or hammer shit up. I like your approach to keeping your customers happy, most of them anyway.

Just wondering....are CPR and ITG the same filter?
They look identical (to me)

I haven't used a CPR/ITG filter yet, but my experience so far with my SE is the following
a) Stock bike.....fine but nothing special to write home about
b) Akras and 1 slot the needles up (as per KTM instructions).....great midnange, but lacking on low end
c) H2W jetting with prefilter....fantastic throttle response and low-mid power but a bit lacking on the high end
d) Deleted prefilter, up-ed mains to stock sizes....better than (c) in every way
e) replaced stock filter with DNA (not much dust where I ride), opened sommers doors and up-ed main jets some more. Bike is now ripping through the rev range. Had to go from 16/45 on H2W to 17/42 on current setup to make 1st sensible on the street.

Maybe these filters make it even better, I don't know. For me their value is to get rid of the box for ease of tuning and maintenance.
