THi,hey certainly get very dirty very quickly , black yes but not oily. Theres no breather return directly into the airbox to get anything oily.
The GTT Cold Ram Induction Kit stays much cleaner as it pulls the bulk of the cold (and cleaner ) air from the base of the windscreen area.
Best Regards Roland GTT
