Don't buy these ebay airfilters!!!

I bought these
cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...0717601892&viewitem=
air filters, and they are SOOO terrible! They have holes all over the mesh and I don't think I can even use these. Learn from me and save your money!

the quality is guaranteed. It's guaranteed to be crap like most of the stuff on Fleabay.

x2
I bought a set for the BS34 carbs and mine are not quite as bad but they are still junk. For the $25 I can get a season out of them and than pitch them. Nothing lost but definitely nothing gained. I will stick with the EMGO which I have been using in the past and I really like. They are only a couple of $ more but 10x better. Did you give the guy a negative feedback, or did you contact him?

I'm old enough to remember how bad Japan's reputation was for junk in the 60s and 70s.
For a historical reference, Woody Allen comments on this in the movie 'Sleeper' when he's trying to escape the police by flying away with a backpack-style pack, "Fly you sunnuva b!$%h, fly you God!@# cheap japanese flying machine."
In 10 years this quality issue of chinese junk won't change because they're screwy communists and their society will fail.
