The K\u0026amp;N KN-204-1 Racing Oil Filter is built to satisfy those requirements without compromise — featuring a safety-wire drilling as standard, a double-rolled seam base plate, and a high-flow synthetic filter medium engineered to protect your engine at race RPM and beyond.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSafety-wire drilling as standard — satisfies mandatory scrutineering requirements at circuit events without modification.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e17 mm hex nut for tool-free removal with any common spanner, eliminating fumbling in the pits between sessions.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAnti-drainback valve prevents dry starts by retaining oil in the filter when the engine is off — critical protection during cold starts and after prolonged storage.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUpdated pressure relief valve optimises oil flow and guards against overpressure conditions, even under sustained high-rev race use.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWalls 50% thicker than standard filters, reinforced base plate with double-rolled seal — built to withstand the mechanical and thermal stresses of track conditions.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eModern synthetic filter medium traps dirt, metal particles and contaminants while maintaining a high flow rate compatible with fully synthetic and race-spec engine oils.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePre-lubricated O-ring ensures a clean, leak-free installation every time — no additional sealant required.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eBuilt for the Circuit, Ready for the Road\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe KN-204-1 is not simply a rebadged road filter. Every design choice — from the safety-wire boss to the reinforced canister walls — addresses the specific demands of track riding. At high RPM, oil pressure spikes and temperature extremes that would stress a standard filter are handled with authority by the K\u0026amp;N's heavy-duty construction. The synthetic filter medium continues to deliver excellent filtration even when oil temperatures climb well above the thresholds seen in everyday street riding.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFor R3 owners who use their machine on both road and track, the KN-204-1 fits seamlessly into a standard oil-change routine. The pre-lubricated O-ring, combined with the 17 mm hex, means installation and removal take minutes rather than a frustrating battle with proprietary tooling. K\u0026amp;N's more than 50 years of filtration engineering underpin every unit — consistency and reliability you can count on service after service.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eFitment \u0026amp; Compatibility\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe K\u0026amp;N KN-204-1 is a direct-fit replacement oil filter for the following model:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eYamaha YZF-R3 (2015–2026)\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSpecification\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eDetail\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePart number\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eKN-204-1\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBrand\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eK\u0026amp;N\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFilter type\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRacing oil filter\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFilter medium\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eModern synthetic filter media\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSafety-wire drilling\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eYes — track-use ready\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRemoval hex size\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e17 mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBase plate\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eReinforced with double-rolled seal\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOil compatibility\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCompatible with synthetic and race-spec engine oils\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFitment\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eYamaha YZF-R3 (2015–2026)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"K\u0026N","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53168714940682,"sku":"KN-204-1","price":12.78,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0949\/7831\/0410\/files\/KN-204-1_ef9150e2-d06e-4658-b2eb-1a8044857620.png?v=1780812162","url":"https:\/\/inter-pace.com\/products\/k-n-racing-oil-filter-yamaha-yzf-r3-2015-2026","provider":"Inter-Pace","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
