    I was looking to change out the air cleaner on my 2005 VFR800, and I picked up the 17210-MCW-D01 from Partzilla. I haven't tried putting it into the bike yet, but I went back onto Partzilla and noticed I may have picked up the wrong part. Under the 17210-MCW-D00 related fitment it says it'll fit the 1998-2009 models. But on the 17210-MCW-D01 related fitment it says it'll fit 2006-2015. So, ultimately, my question is do I have to return it and get the D00? Considering the 2006-2009 can use either the D00 or D01 (according to Partzilla, of course), I'm thinking that I might be okay with the D01 in terms of fitment. But I don't know if there were changes to the filter itself which prevent Partzilla from recommending it to the 2005 for air flow reasons or something. More confusing yet, other eBay listings show the D01 being compatible with anything since 1998. Thoughts?

    Should be fully interchangeable. The D00 and D01 denote version - the D01 will just be a newer design or new behind-the-scenes manufacturer.
