The 2024 GAS GAS EX350F, known for its redesigned, ergonomic bodywork and robust performance, utilizes a no-tools required air filter mounting system for fast, efficient maintenance. Regular air filter cleaning and timely replacement ensure your engine runs at peak power and extends the bike's life.

When to Service Your Air Filter
- After every ride in dusty or muddy conditions.
- At least once every 10 hours of use during normal trail riding.
- Any time you notice visible dirt, loss of throttle response, or reduced engine power.
How to Access the Air Filter
- Remove the seat by pressing the release button under the rear fender and lifting the seat off the bike.
- Take off the right side panel by undoing the fastener and pulling the panel away from the frame.
- Release the air filter box cover using the integrated no-tool latch system. Carefully pull away the cover to expose the air filter.
Removing the Air Filter
- Gently pull the filter frame out, ensuring no debris falls into the airbox.
- Inspect the sealing surface for damage–the 2024 EX350F often features a thick foam sealing ring for extra dust protection. Replace the filter if there is any tearing, shrinkage, or glue separation.
Cleaning the Air Filter
- Tap the filter gently to remove loose dirt.
- Wash the filter using a biodegradable air filter cleaner and warm water. Avoid gasoline or harsh chemicals as they degrade foam and glue.
- Rinse thoroughly, then squeeze out excess water without twisting to prevent tearing.
- Allow to air dry completely–do not use compressed air or high heat.
- Re-oil the filter using a high-quality foam filter oil until fully saturated but not dripping.
- Remove excess oil by gently squeezing (not wringing) the filter.
Reinstalling or Replacing the Air Filter
- Check the airbox for dirt or water. Wipe clean with a damp, lint-free cloth if needed.
- Install the freshly oiled filter or a new replacement filter onto the filter frame. Ensure the sealing edge mates perfectly with the airbox surface.
- Attach the air filter frame securely into its slot–the filter should fit snugly with no gaps.
- Reinstall the air filter box cover, ensuring the seal is even and secure.
- Reattach the right side panel and seat, securing both with their fasteners.
Model-Specific Tips for the 2024 GAS GAS EX350F
- The airbox design on the 2024 model includes precisely positioned inlet ducts–keep these clear of obstructions for maximum horsepower.
- With the tool-less air filter system, filter changes can be completed trackside in under 5 minutes, promoting frequent servicing and prolonged engine life.
- The factory filter uses a special foam sealing ring; always inspect this ring during cleaning or replace if crushed or torn for optimal dust protection.
