Real K&N or Cheap Junk?
Received three of these with a recent bike purchase. Opening measures approximately 40 mm. No identification markings indicating brand. Anyone know if these are K&N or ? Also, which carbs have a 40mm inlet?

To measure is to know.

I agree with Chef and Focus.
K&N is proud enough of their products to label them.

They look like a set I bought off ebay. Just my opinion, but I didn't think they were as effective or as well made as K&Ns.
