Does Kawasaki use paper or foam air filters? BMC has air filters for the bike ('03) & I will replace it if its paper, but not if its foam. K&N filters suck, so I wont even go there.
I ran a test in a test unit for air filters. Tested the the stock filter and the air flow was very low, set the BMC race filter in it and the air flow was a differenc between night and day. I bought the one for my 2003 ZX-6RR (BMC Race filter 323/04 RACE..

The test used and ping pong ball in a cycldrical tube with wind sucking fans to push the flow through.
There is always a personal judgement/preference. As I said I did my own testing on a device supplied by a air filter manufacture.
But hey, make your own call and do you own home work. I would always recommend to do some true technical research on your own. As people post here take their comments into consideration also, then research on your own with all the facts you have.
Hope this helps a little,
