Product Description

The K&N KA-6005 is a high-flow replacement air filter engineered specifically for 2005-2006 generation Kawasaki ZX-6R / ZX-6RR motorcycles. Compared to the stock paper filter, KA-6005's pleated, cotton-gauze panel media delivers significantly increased airflow - improving engine breathing, throttle response, and overall performance under street or spirited riding conditions. The larger filtration surface area also provides excellent dust and debris filtering while enabling extended service intervals before required cleaning and re-oiling.

Installation is simple and straightforward: KA-6005 drops directly into the OEM airbox using the model-specific sealing bead - no modifications or tuning changes are necessary for stock engine setups. It comes pre-oiled and ready to install. Because the filter is washable, reusable, and built for longevity, it provides a cost-effective, long-term solution compared to disposable filters - making it a smart upgrade for ZX-6R / ZX-6RR owners seeking better airflow, improved performance, and reduced maintenance over many riding seasons.
