use whatever K&N style cotton gauze reuseable pod style filter you can fit.

Or a K&N replacement for the stock filter

The main problem I didn't like is the fact that the rear wheels, are putting dirt right up to where the air is being sucked in
I realise that it has a filter on it.

Whats everyone else use, for offroad use

Just make some deflector plates to stop the rear wheels throwing stuff in the air cleaners. A piece of metal / alloy / plastic / road sign will work good.

As for air cleaners I use K&N cotton gauze filters. When I go offroad I also put an extra foam sock filter over top of the K&N's as a prefilter. I made my sock prefilters from some 5mm foam cut and glued into the right shape to cover the K&N's.
