just go to the BMC site and get the part number for the cleaning kit....then see who has it locally or otherwise.
or you're gonna give your filter dish pan hands.
here's the "how to"
http://www.bmcairfilters.com/infoWAKins.asp
degreaser is degreaser and light spray oil is light spray oil...known other riders (including myself) that've used this method for years...one of the old "rider secrets" things...just like using $1.97 a can pledge spray funiture polish to clean and polish your plastics instead of $6.99 a can, special trip to the shop..plexus...and it works just fine with no ill affects.

my point being that if they were kind enough to design a filter and a cleaning kit......and you spent 80.00 on a filter you paid EXTRA for because you felt that extra 1HP was going to make or break the bike's performance...wouldn't you just use the suggested cleaning product?
"rider secrets" are fine if you're in a pinch or on the road...but if the have the time...do it right.
you just spent 550.00+ on a set of friggn foot pegs and now suggest 1.97 can of pledge is just as good at cleaning our Busas?
Until I ride something like this:
Thanks, but I'll spend the extra 5 bucks.
