Looks like it will Amiee,the part no. is TB-6000.
As for making a difference,not that you would notice on a standard bike,mine showed less than a 1bhp gain on the dyno.The main reason for buying one is that you never need to replace the filter again so its worth doing it if only for cost reasons. :)

oh... there it is, the real reason for the filter, if we were all that concerned about cost we wouldn't own the bikes we do now would we!

Gixerboy is right a K&N should outlast the lifetime of a motorcycle. 8-)
Certainly would make a Triumph Triple sound nice! ;)

It may not make much difference on the dyno on its own but with a different zorst, cams, etc, etc it will. Its just one part of a big jigsaw of preformance parts to give a boost over all! DONT FORGET TO RE-JET THO!!! otherwise you get a big bang and **** all else except a big bill for the re-build!!! :( :( :o :( :(

on my bike they (they being people who play with theirs) recommend using one with an exhaust as the bike doesn't need rejetting but it'll help once the exhaust is on. like the others said, it's also handy not to have to replace them if you do your own servicing

Yours will need to be set up by triumph once ya have fitted a filter hun, but you were going to do that anyway to get it right for the exhaust....xxx

Aimee, I had a K&N fitted to my TT along with the exhaust I sold you.

As soon as it was fitted I noticed the difference, better pickup on the throttle right from the get go! the cheapest place I could find after a lot of hunting was:

http://www.ybfilters.co.uk/bikefilters/triumphtable.htm

£32.75, including Free Delivery!
Also got one for Rob (Sigg21) Sprint ST when placing the order, Fast Delivery

You could have had myn but its currently fitted to my Daytona being as they have much similar Air Boxes.

Hope This helps, And to all others take a look at 'YB Filters' for your new Filter!
