Since I bought my bike I have changed the oil, scrubbed and oiled the chain, and replaced the handlebars. The next thing I want to do is replace the air filter, but I cant figure out if I can or should replace my bike's oiled foam filter with a fabric filter. More importantly is if I should make the switch. Does one have any significant advantages over the other in terms of performance, quality, and maintenance?

I'd stick with the oiled foam, easy to wash out and clean then use one of the modern air filter oils like K&N. FSM probably says to use 80-90W gear oil but that was before there was air filter oil
