Changed my air box filter tonight for a pipercross one and found this in the box:

Looks like a green filter to me. Can anyone confirm, and if so which would be the better?

Looks same as mine Craig - a green one as you said.

Sure you haven't changed mine??????

The Green Cotton Air Filter company was formed in 1995 and was borne out of the idea of designing, developing, manufacturing and supplying premium cotton air filters to the racing and motor sport industry. The experience and expertise gained from supplying customers like Peugeot, Citroen and Motorsport teams has quickly promoted the company to becoming Europe's largest cotton air filter manufacturer.

Deep pleats in the cotton gauze ensure there is a 10-20% increase in surface area to draw more air into the engine. The cotton gauze is made up of a medium and fine layer to trap and hold dirt, dust and moisture particles as small as 0.50 microns. The gauze is held in place by a strong, fine alloy mesh that allows the filter to perform its job perfectly.

From year 2000 the prestigious EAQF manufacturing standard was awarded to Green Air Filters for consistent, high quality manufacturing standards. The range of filters is expanding all the time and the commitment to providing the customers with the best filtration technology available is always guaranteed.

I have had a Green Cotton Filter in mine for 60k and just clean it every 6 months or so.

Keep the green one in , better IMO and better quality than the pipercross.

Cheers man, I'll heed your advice. Can't say I've noticed any difference today with the PX one in (not that I was expecting a difference!)

Don't know which ones better but the Green is worth more, I think almost £15 more than the Pipercross to buy!

Bet you feel like than man who found a forgotten tenner in his pocket!
