What are the pros and cons of changing the stock air filter in my bike? Will it also improve the fuel efficiency?
Most bikes come from the factory on the lean side. Meaning, the manufacturers dial back the bike's use of fuel. Some of this is for fuel economy, but mostly it's to meet emissions and sound regulations.The basic premise of an engine is to bring in air & fuel, burn it, then spew out the exhaust. This process needs to be a fine tuned system. For instance, if you were to seriously open up your intake, your bike would probably run like crap. What was already lean, is now leaner. You didn't also increase fuel.Let's say you opened up your intake AND fuel, it would still run like crap because the stock exhaust couldn't handle the increase from the pre-burn side.Bottom line is, if you're looking for a performance increase, you will need to touch all points. More air, more fuel, free flowing exhaust. And only as much as the cylinder can handle. As another mentioned, this will increase sound and emissions, in addition to power. The manufacturers made a trade off, you will need to as well.Now ... a K&N, despite the marketing hype, isn't going to do much power wise. You'd need a dyno to see the slight uptick. And it isn't going to let in so much more air that the balance of air/fuel will be noticeably affected. So, what's the pro? Well, they're re-usable. Clean 'em, oil 'em, stick 'em back in. You won't be throwing away filters any more. If you're riding offroad, they will flow better, even with dirt and dust. And they're easy to clean on trail side.Another pro is that you will hear a slight increase in sound (if that's your thing), but it won't be that noticeable. Carb'ed engines may make a whistling sound with more air flowing. FE engines might be just a tad louder from the air flow. But it won't be anything you'd beat your chest over.Personally, I've had them. Liked them. Not sure the cost is worth it. On my KLR, I have the stock foam filter, which is also cleanable. So going the K&N route isn't really necessary. And there aren't any more ponies to be had from the engine, so I'm not even thinking of searching for increased performance.HTH
Who is the fastest fictional character in history?
Urahara Kisuke ...And if he isn’t time travelling, then he wouldn’t pull that off. argh....YEa, base Sonic would need dedicated FTL feats, way more before archie would give him a time travelling feat. A question to you about what you mentioned - Sonic being able to move in a instant- that sort of speed , could in no concievable way be affected by Speed Stealing. Speed= Distance divided by time. So guess what- when the distance = Any, and the time is zero- Flash can steal speed, ....but he’ll never take enough to affect Sonic.

What would be your username if it was allowed on Quora?
If I had to pick a username, it would be 1 of the two major usernames I’ve used in my life so far.Wizardsofdra - My first major username ever was “Wizardsofdra” (People call me Wiz or WoD at times as well). I used it almost everywhere I go and even use it in some sites today, like Steam and several other websites.How did the name Wizardsofdra come about? Well, its a long story. Back in 2008, when i was only 7/8, my best friend told me about a game called Wizard101. That’s where the wizard part of my name came from. I don’t remember exactly, but there are two possible sources that I got dra from but both of them would have worked the exact same way.A world in Wizard101 was named DragonspyreI used to play a mobile game named DragonvaleThe way “Dra” came out was just because of a character limit to usernames. On another game when I was 10, I tried to name my character Wizardsofdragonspyre or Wizardsofdragonvale (Can’t remember.) However, there was a 12 character limit to the name and I could only write Wizardsofdra. That name stuck with me ever since, and I’ve used it for multiple online websites and accounts.The username I currently use is “Switchoroo” (People call me Switch sometimes). I’ve mostly changed to Switchoroo, except for websites that don’t allow username changes.How did I get that? It’s a lot more complicated and difficult to track down the origins of this username than Wizardsofdra. Back in October of 2016, I was in dire need of a username change. I wanted to “Switch” things up.Coincidentally, in October of 2016 the company Nintendo also released a trailer for their new console, the Nintendo Switch. I was thinking of a new username I could use, and the first thing I thought of was Switchoroo. The word “Switcheroo” means a change, reversal, or exchange, but I added an o where the e would be just to make it a unique username I could use on many websites.I’ve used these 2 usernames for a very long time due to name recognition and nostalgia, and I don’t plan on changing them for a long time.
