It would prob be easier if L&M would subscribe to their own threads so it would send them and email notification when folks might have questions about their products?
No they are not symetrical. Look at their web page and click on both pics. You can clearly see one of them is up past the radiator shroud and the other is about the middle of the front cylinder. Not sure it would clear the suzuki crash bars.
Hey guys, Sorry we did not keep up with the questions. This is not a CHINA air filter kit, this is made in the USA. The China kit is a copy of this original Dual air filter system with cheap spike air filters. However the price of $150 is very attractive and it's your choice on how you want to spend your hard earned money.
We are not sure on the crash bars, we can say the exhaust side air intake is further forward compared to the "shift" side of the M109. The normal K&N air filter on the exhaust side might work with the crash bars, but this will need to be looked over with comparison pictures to your crash bars.
Here's a install video of this product. Thank you for your support and comments.

I like your product a lot better than the cheap knockoff version, besides they don't look exactly alike anyway. I believe in quality and will pay more for it every time. I noticed on the website, there is a billet filter option. How do the billet filters look?
In fact the Chinese copy has the wrong hardware and brackets that set the air filters to point crooked. Ask to see a video of them pointing straight forward, you will not find one. I'm sorry is it me or does it eat at anyone else that China makes crappy copies of our American ingenuity? Hey the price is good and the choice is yours. At any moment you can contact us as ask questions about the Dual air intake system for your Suzuki M109.
Thanks for your support!

good install video, you have just shown everyone how to fit the china crap ones now .
your right about them pointing crooked....................well mabe . or mabe i installed the rod part differant to what it was supposed to be ,who knows they give no instructions.
this is with the spacer provided with kit.
This is with the spacer in between the rod and motor taken out .....looks straight to me,its just a matter of stuffing around with them .
No problem either way you guys will know a little more about what your buying. Whether you buy from us or the others. Please enjoy the video for your info.
Thanks for your support.

That is the real issue...help support working folks in the USA or buy China. But don't bitch when Americans are closing their shops because they just can't compete with the crap coming from overseas.
And the American companies that do hire labor overseas who are they really hurting? You because the money is going overseas and not into the American banks or American hands to reinvest in the USA market place.
As the old saying goes...You can buy cheap but you get what you pay for. Have an issue with an overseas company and try and get it fixed and they will forget about you.
So what are you trying to say ? We should go buy those from low and mean for $ 500 ??? Then pay some rediculous price to send it to Australia?
Don't worry buddy plenty of Aussies are buying from USA you'll be right . Can tell you the guys in the bike shops in australia are not happy when we buy from the US of A
Just out of curiosity Mr L&M how much would it cost to send those filters to Australia ??
I'm with you, sending our money to China, just gives them more power to build and control world issues. I know it sucks to pay more for the same item that is cheaper, but in the end, supporting the companies that put Americans to work is not so bad.
As long as your a member of this forum we will always do our best to support you with discounts on our American made product.
How do you think the Aussies companies feel when we send our dollars to America cause you guys sell us cheaper stuff . I'll always send my dollars to the USA for bike parts .
But for the price of the china filter kit I thought I'd try it , and I'm happy with it .

Your right! By the time its all said and done your well over $500 bucks for this air intake system. And I guess they wonder why everyone is buying the China brand....lol Heck I'm thinking about buying the china version myself because I dont see the value in this overpriced kit.
Shipping to Oz is around $50-$60 USPS. I know you guys are in a different situation then us in America. The big difference is this country is sending our money to China to make cheap copied products (some of which is good cheap stuff) But in the end we are also taking jobs away from Americans and undercutting the orignial companies prices. Hey you could stick your head up a bulls a$$, but would you rather take the butchers word for it? Haha, Love that movie ( Tommy Boy ).
Hats off to the guy that made his own bracket and not trying to copy another work, compitiion is great, copy cat ripe offs should be burned. IMO
I like the idea, is that plate mounted on the stock air box?
if so, is the hole in the back still open or did u close it? Paint or chrome would look killer. Thank
I have the forcewinder intakes on my bike and love them. Had them for about two years. they are great intakes. Symetrical is no. the right it further up then left. They mount with suzuki crash bars. Pic of my bike show that!
Any ideas on how much CFM these (China) filters flow? They are not K&N, correct? It sure looks restricted with the chrome cover shown. Just curious as I would think it a major bummer to loose HP over stock K&N filters with an opened up (Ducks) cover.
The Ducks will for sure pull more air in than what? Stock, or these? I realize they'll pull more air in than stock. But I'm wondering if any testing has been done with these specifically. I have never seen anyone post before and after, and as I stated, the cover seems very restrictive, IMHO.
who makes our beloved bike?
well with that said I would rather buy
the parts from US
when possable.
easy to deal with US people,and shipping is much faster
