Step-by-Step Air Filter Cleaning

  1. Remove the Air Filter: Begin by removing the seat to access the airbox. Carefully take out the air filter, ensuring no dirt falls into the intake.
  2. Inspect the Filter: Check for any tears or damage. If the filter is damaged, replace it immediately.
  3. Clean the Filter: Use a filter cleaner specifically designed for foam filters. Spray the cleaner generously and let it sit for a few minutes to break down dirt and oil.
  4. Rinse and Dry: Rinse the filter with warm water until all the cleaner and dirt are removed. Squeeze out excess water without wringing the filter. Allow it to air dry completely.
  5. Oil the Filter: Once dry, apply air filter oil evenly. Ensure the entire filter is coated but not overly saturated.
  6. Reinstall the Filter: Place the filter back into the airbox, ensuring a proper seal to prevent unfiltered air from entering the engine.

While cleaning is essential, replacing the air filter is equally important. Consider replacing the filter if:
