 Will, can't answer that question but I can tell you that the money you save 
from not replacing paper filters on a regular basis will more than offset the 
price of their oil and cleaner.

I have used my two cans for several years at this point, and they both are 
still have full.  It takes very little cleaner and oil to get them ready to go.

Just one man's opinion.

I just installed my K & N air filters on my Triumph to improve the show
quality (read as more 'shiny chrome' ).

Reading the fine print, there is a special oil requirement. Hmmm, I already
have special oil for my SU dampers, special oil for my Armstrong rear shocks,
20 W 50 ZDDP racing oil for the engine, transmission oil and 90 W hypoid oil
for the differential. Also I have special oil for my air compressor and a
special detergent free oil for my air tools. I love this hobby, but not sure
if I am a vintage car enthusiast or an oil collector.

Any chance that this K & N oil is something very ordinary, but just rebottled
and then over-priced accordingly?
