Default Pointy SV650 air filter - which one?

Its come to service time, I think my air filter will need replacing so what one do you recommend for myself? Standard or Non standard?

This has been spoken about a lot.

I have a K&N in my curvy which I got when I bought the bike but found it to run better with the OEM one in it untill I fitted my race can.

I think the other make that is liked is the BMC ????? ( not sure that's right)

The OEM one filters better and is what I would use. K&N aren't famous for being top grit stoppers.

OEM works well. TBH the K&N etc road replacements flow very similar and the only benefit being they are cleanable.
