I've heard good things, first, its K&N, they make good stuff, and the hex nut on the end makes changing easy.

K & N Products are high quality and the bolt does make it easy to change. Its a great product. I am just too cheap to pay $20.00 for an oil filter after shipping. I use a WIX filter because it is high quality and in stock at O'Reilly.

I use the K&N from AJUSA. Buy 2 at a time so you get free shipping. I'm on my second one right now and wouldn't switch to anything else. K&N is high quality, the bolt head is a godsend. Plus, you have the option of black or chrome...

Bought a chrome one to use in about 1000 km. Will be my first oil change myself so I wanted something of good quality, and heard only good things with k&n stuff.

I have it (the black version, but they're more or less the same.) I've used it for about 1100 miles and is working great so far.

You guys may also want to check locally with your dealer before ordering online.

My dealer carries the black ones in stock for $13.99, and can order the chome one (in two to three days) for $14.99, virtually the same price as AJUSA

Nobody around me stocks it and the closest dealer is about an hour away, so I just ordered it. That is virtually the same price though, good to know.
