Air Filter Cleaning – Replacement Guide for 2022 Yamaha TTR110
Shop parts for a 2022 Yamaha TTR110 Dirt Bike.
The air filter on your 2022 Yamaha TTR110 is critical for keeping the engine safe from dust, grit, and other debris common in off-road riding. Regular cleaning – or replacement when the filter begins to show signs of degeneration – is essential for reliable performance and engine longevity. Owners should note that the TTR110 uses a reusable foam air filter which can handle frequent maintenance, making it cost-effective for family fun or training use.
Unique to the TTR110: The TTR110 air box design features a water catch at the bottom, helping drain accidental water intrusion via a clear tube – be sure to check and keep this tube clear during maintenance for extra protection against water damage. The engine on the TTR110 is air-cooled, and dust or debris entering through a damaged filter can speed up top end wear. The bike's compact design means parts are easy to access, but always keep track of fasteners during removal and installation.
When to Clean or Replace?
- Clean your air filter after every ride in dusty conditions.
- Inspect after semi-wet or muddy rides and after periods of storage.
- Replace the filter when tears, brittleness, or holes appear.
- More frequent maintenance is needed in sandy or silty riding areas.
Tools & Materials Needed
- 10mm & 8mm socket
- Phillips screwdriver
- Foam air filter cleaner/solvent (never use gasoline or low flash-point solvents)

Step-by-Step: Cleaning – Replacement Procedure
-
Preparation:
- Secure your TTR110 on a stable surface.
- Remove the seat by loosening bolts with a 10mm socket.
- Take off the right side panel using bolts and quick-fasteners.
- Using a screwdriver, remove the air filter case cover screws (usually three in total).
-
Remove the Filter:
- Take out the foam filter and mesh from the air box.
- Inspect for tears or degradation – replace if any are found.
-
Clean the Air Box:
- Wipe the inside of the box with a rag and an approved cleaner or starting fluid to remove dust and debris.
- Check the water catch tube at the bottom and clear if needed.
-
Clean the Filter:
- Soak the foam filter in air filter solvent, squeezing out debris. Do not twist aggressively to avoid tearing.
- Rinse thoroughly in warm water until completely clean.
- Allow to air dry – do not use heat sources.
-
Oil the Filter:
- Saturate the filter with proper air filter oil by placing it in a sealable bag and kneading until fully coated.
- Add a little extra oil if areas appear dry.
- Remove excess oil by gently squeezing; an evenly oiled filter will trap dust better.
-
Reassembly:
- Insert the oiled filter and mesh back into the air box.
- Reinstall the filter cover and secure with screws.
- Replace side panel and seat, tightening all bolts securely.
Tips – Warnings for TTR110 Owners
- Always dispose of solvents, used oil, or damaged filters responsibly – never pour down drains or on soil.
- Use high-quality filter oil specific to foam engines for best dust protection.
- Watch for sand or water ingress – the TTR110's compact air box makes thorough cleaning easy but necessary after deep water crossings or extremely dusty rides.
- Track bolt and screw locations, as lost fasteners can lead to loose bodywork or air box leaks.
The 2022 Yamaha TTR110 is perfect for youth riders – regular air filter maintenance keeps it running strong and worry-free, letting you focus on fun on the trail or track.
