not sure of the lay-out on the L models airbox.... but that filter would fit lovely in my H model, maybee they give you the wrong year, but i havent heard of the filter being different between the H and L's tho.... :smt017

fitted the filter to my other halfs ZX-4, bike was running perfect if maybe a touch rich through the midrange before, running perfect if maybe a touch rich through the midrange now.. upshot, its better made and nicer to look at than OE, but makes bugger all difference to performance .. compared to a clean/new OE filter, obviously its WAY better than a manky one, which is what you normally have when going "airfilter shopping"..

looks easier to clean though.

recommended :)

the good thing with these type of filters is you clean and re-oil them so you don't have to keep replacing them.
Don't forget people there is more to the zxr400 than this forum... check out www.zxrworld.co.uk also.
