The world of off-road vehicles has rapidly changed over the last decade. More and more, desert goers have begun to rely on side-by-side vehicles to accommodate family fun into one vehicle. The Polaris Ranger RZR is a perfect example of a side-by-side vehicle that has seen an explosion in popularity in recent years. And this year, K&N sponsored an RZR that turned everyone's heads at the annual SEMA show in Las Vegas.

Ryan Fellman began working on this 2009 Polaris Ranger RZR-s just a month before the SEMA show in November, but his attention to detail made it a must-see piece in the central hall. His inspiration for the modified RZR came from the endless supply of stock RZR's found in the desert.

"The RZR is a great machine out of the box," said the 10-year veteran of vehicle upgrading. "The power and handling are amazing for a stock side-by-side, so I decided to improve the styling. Whenever I go to the desert I see at least ten other RZR's, so I decided to make one that screamed K&N."

Mission Accomplished, Ryan. The RZR on display at SEMA featured an edgy, modern graphics scheme, with K&N emblazoned down both sides and across the front. Fellman worked with Rebel Signs and their racing department to develop the RZR's wrap. He stripped the vehicles stock cage and graphics, and Rebel Racing helped with the new cage as well.

"The stock cage is a little goofy looking if you ask me, so the new cage drastically improved the look of the RZR," Fellman added.

Fellman's favorite part of building the RZR was the custom fabrication of the cage, and the buzz around the vehicle at SEMA proved the time devoted to this Polaris was worth it.

New sides to allow for greater decal coverage was the next addition, and from there Fellman simply added matching wheels and tires, seats, and painted the cage. "Everything worked out great in the end and I really like how it turned out."

Fellman's choice of K&N products for the modified RZR was, according to him, an easy choice. "K&N products have so many different benefits on any application, why wouldn't you use them?"

"I've been using K&N since I bought my first Chevy Half-Ton in 1989, and their products are fantastic."

2011 to 2016 Kawasaki Ninja 1000 and ZX1000 Get Performance K&N Air Filter Option

Replacement Air Filter for 2010 to 2016 Ninja 1000 and Z1000

Kawasaki divides its motorcycles into two different categories- sport bikes and super-sport bikes.  The 2011 and 2012 Ninja 1000 and Z1000 are at the top of their class when it comes to Kawasaki sport bike models. Very similar to the Ninja 1000 is Kawasaki’s fellow sport model, the Z1000. The Z1000 is street fighter version of the Ninja 1000. With the same engine and frame. There are only minor tweaks that separate these bikes in their functionally, but major changes when it comes to style.

In 2011 Kawasaki put a lot of energy into their line of liter bikes, which included the Ninja 1000 and Z1000. These bikes have an aggressive yet appealing style and performance, but retain an ease of use, as the sport bike line was designed. The handle bars are raised for better control when managing the 1,043 cubic centimeters of tuned power. To optimize that power, Kawasaki has worked to perfect its cool air intake system. They integrated the air intake into ducts in the faring, allowing for increased flow with speed that creates a sonic difference that riders can hear and appreciate. What better way to optimize this technology than with a K&N KA-1111 performance air filter?

The KA-1111 will fit 2011 and 2012 Kawasaki Ninja 1000 and Z1000 models and will last for the life of the bike. Performance air filter part KA-1111 is backed by K&N’s industry leading Million Mile Limited Warranty. It is easy to clean and reuse. One of the biggest benefits of the K&N motorcycle air filter is the air filter technology. It is designed to increase horsepower and torque while it provides great air-flow over the stock filter with excellent filtration efficiency.

These high-performance sport bikes need to breathe clean air and lots of it and K&N’s KA-1111 air filter will fulfill all of those needs.
