Does anybody know of a part number or stock application for a 14"x5" round air filter? I'm just looking for a good stock-replacement type like a Napa Gold or Baldwin paper filter, and no place I've been able to find has them listed by dimensions, only applications. The Autozone guy was equally unhelpful for the same reason. I did find a couple from Summit, but the cheapest one was $17 (plus $12 handling), and having to order air filters is a PITA.
And before somebody suggests it, no, I don't want a K&N or any other serviceable aftermarket filter. I want to be able to just change the thing for $5 when it gets dirty, and I don't trust the filtering abilities of the gauze filters in an offroad environment. I do a lot of high-speed gravel-roading, and that super-fine gravel dust gets everywhere. I have K&Ns on my bike, but a truck is a different deal. Plus, even a paper 14"x5" filter will flow more than enough air for my 400. Anyway, I'm not looking to start a debate, I just want to find a common, economical source for replacement parts.
