The filter pairs a heavy-duty steel can with resin-impregnated synthetic media to capture contaminants while minimizing pressure drop. Its black finish and integrated 17mm nut make removal and service fast, and features such as an anti-drainback valve (when applicable) help preserve oil at shutdown.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow does the KN-204 help maintain oil flow during spirited riding?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe KN-204 is designed to minimize pressure drop so oil moves freely through the filter under varying engine loads.
