if I'm not mistaken, that "special oil" won't be needed for 50 k miles. I didn't worry about it!

Subject: [TR] Oil for K & N Air Filters

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?
