Hello guys, am a Spark 135 rider and this is my 1st post.. I've changed my air filter to the K&N Gilera Runner air filter.. No problem when riding in the rain too.. My review?

1. increased pickup
2. speed doesn't drop drastically when going up slope, able to maintain..
3. more responsive
4. nice sound, heh heh
5. still unsure whether its reduces fuel consumption as i tend to always ride
fast

Here's a pic of it

For what make/model is that filter specified for? Spark 135? Any modification needed to fit to our bike?

Good question and the answer is no, it doesn't fit the carb, in fact is much bigger.. what the mechanic did was, he took out the tube rubber part that connects the stock air box to the carb (cause it fits the carb), puts it in side the K&N air filter.. There were still gaps cause the the hole of the K&N filter is big, so the mechanic took and cut out rubber from tyre tubes to cover the gaps, used industrial tape and cable tie to tighten the gaps,(wished he used silicon to secure it) passed it to me to test whether its strong and check for gaps/holes, was good so he fixed it ;)
