I'm no expert on the F4, but if you get the K&N and a Slip On.....

You're gonna wanna put on a Jet kit as well. It'll increase the performance of the bike which =

Im not 100%, but it looks like on mine you have to pull the tank off to change the air filter. Once you remove the tank, its just a couple of screws to pull the top off the airbox and remove and reinstall the air filter.

Yeah the air filter box is underneath the tank

Undo the bolts that hold the tank down....have someone lift it up & hold it while you undo the screws that hold down the top of the airbox. Pull the stock filter out & drop the K&N filter in.
Then put the screws back on the box & put the tank back on.
