Venom motorsports doesn't have the filters listed on there site yet. You can call them to order though.

You can greatly extend the life of a paper filter by just vacuuming it out. I have done this with my car's engine air and cabin air filters, and they come out looking very close to new. Have to get in between the pleats with the crevice tool on your vacuum.

You can also add a oiled foam filter to catch the dust and the paper filter will stay clean. I may look into that option before I take the bike out on the trails.

has anyone came up with a solution or found any kind of pannier racks for these bikes? I am about to order mine and will be needing extra luggage capacity as I will be taking it on a 500 mile BDR trip and will be camping for roughly over a week there and back?

I never looked into the panniers as I plan on buying a KPT 400 next year if and when Venom get them. Dang EPA has been holding up quiet a few new bikes American Lifan is trying to get EPA certification.

I had no idea about the KPT 400! Maybe I will just wait and pull the trigger on it then! I need to look it up to see how hefty this bike is going to be.

Various wheel measurements
I pulled the front and rear wheels off my KPX 250 (with 50 miles on it), and took some measurements. Here are the results for those of you that might be interested:
Front wheel: weight with tire, disc, etc., but no spacers: ~18.8# (digital bathroom scale) Tire dimensions, mounted: ~26.75" x 3.6" Brake disc is ~265mm x 4mm Axle diameter is 15mm Rear wheel: weight with tire, disc, sprocket, etc. but no outside spacers: ~32.4# (digital bathroom scale) Tire dimensions mounted: ~ 26" x 4.9" Brake disc is 220mm x 4mm Axle diameter is 17mm

Notes on a Shinko 705 4.10-18 rear tire mounted on a KPX 250:
~0.8" smaller diameter than stock, so lowers the rear of the bike ~0.4". ~0.4" narrower than stock. Weighs a significant ~2.2 lbs. less. 6000 RPM in 6th gear, ~60 MPH with stock tire 6000 RPM in 6th gear with, ~54 MPH with Shinko 705 Cost $83.16 delivered. I mounted and balanced it myself. Took 1.25 oz. to balance. Feels pretty good in the first test ride... More to come...
