I'm looking to purchase a aftermarket hi-flow Air Filter soon and I just mainly see the Sprint Air Filter that is availible but they are really expensive. Do you guys have any suggestions on any other brands of Air Filters out there for the 2017 and up GSXR 1000?

If you don't have any mods, keep the air filter OEM.

I actually will be doing full exhaust with flash and tune in about 2 more weeks. And i know having a Hi-Flow air filter is ideal to have. just dont want to dish out $250 for the sprint filter.
 
Complete Waste of money....

The gain will be so.... Negligible... it's not even worth bothering with.

All you'll do is allow more dust into your engine, thru inferior filtration.

Can't beat the OEM paper filter for filtration ability bar none...

Also the OEM paper filter has a larger surface area than the sprint filter, as the OEM paper filter has far more pleats than the Sprint filter does.

Save your $250 for something else.
 
I have(L7)/had (K7) a K&N race filter in mine which I can rinse once in a while to be a good as new. Costs around 100 and lasts as long as the bike. Don't know about performance but in the end it saves me some money.
I believe that's a better deal than the mentioned 250 for the sprint filter.

For the L7, the area of the K&N filter is bigger than the original.
