[@eddualmeida5790]

I would just like to take the opportunity to thank DNA for being the ONLY company that makes performance air filter for my Benelli 302!!! Great filter and great vid!

[@xdx2653]

Greeks are generous people :)

[@markymarknj]

Hi, I'd like to thank you all for not only making this video; I'd like to thank you all for making a filter kit for the Royal Enfield Meteor 350! K&N Filters doesn't make anything for my bike, so I'm glad you all make one. It's great, and my bike not only performs better; it sounds better too! Thanks again.

[@artiecisneros4691]

Yesterday I installed a DNA filter on my Meteor 350 and it does perform better and the sound is great. 😎

[@MusluEmin]

I use a long time dna air filter for my xmax 250. Great performans upgraded after the change air filter..Thanks...

[@BoZhaoengineering]

Thank you for your instruction. Just bought a DNA air filter for my Vulcan S . It is very helpful! Thank you !

Excellent video, today I ordered one for my mega scooter Kymco AK550!!!!

[@samcnsz]

Hi there, I use DNA filter for my Vulcan S but I wish I could watch this instruction before cleaning my filter. I put too much oil (top of the mountains and valleys for both side 😓) and now my bike backfires a lot. Do you think this backfiring issue ends in time or I should clean and re-apply oil as instructed?

[@janheering8261]

Great explanation for cleaning and oiling the airfilter. I really like the DNA airfilter for my Street Triple

[@HugoVarandas]

is expected a change in motorcycle fuel consumption using this filter? increase, decrease or don't change?!

[@DNAHighPerformanceFilters]

Hello Hugo, depends on the bike, the filter model and the conditions you will use the filter. But most of the time for normal applications of replacement filters you will see a slight decrease in fuel consumption.

[@Motoccino]

what would you do for a cylindrical filter, for eg, the one for Royal Enfield Himalayan?

[@DNAHighPerformanceFilters]

Same concept. You should clean it with running water from the clean side towards the dirty side. Concerning the brushing it may be a bit difficult because you should clean the inside of the filter but it can be done. Please note that you should always use our service kits for cleaning our products.

[@anergos3838]

Αφου εισερχεται περισσότερος αερας σε σχεση με τα χάρτινα φιλτρα δεν εισερχεται περισσοτερη σκονη? ( με οτι σημαινει αυτο για το μοτερ μακροροθεσμα) .Αυτο εχουμε δει τουλαχιστον σε πολλα τεστ στο youtube με αλλα φιλτα ελευθερας...Και στα Dna το ιδιο συμβαινει?

[@clapclapscream]

I’m in USA where K&N is my readily available option, I assume it’s okay to use their air filter oil on my DNA filter?

[@girishverma9780]

I recently changed to DNA Stage 2 filter in my Husky 401. Does the stage 2 filter require cleaning as well and if so, would I use the part no DSK-3001?

[@DNAHighPerformanceFilters]

Hello, yes it does need cleaning and reoiling as well. DSK-3001 works great with both of your products.

[@indrishmo]

I have dna filter for the meteor 350 and I'm about to service it. However as it is a cylindrical filter with the air intake surface on the inside of it, no paint brush can get in. How do I clean it? Thanks

[@motorings735]

This is pretty straight forward for a flat filter, but what about something more difficult like a cylindrical filter that pulls air from the inside out? (Like your Royal Enfield filters) How do you get inside that tiny opening and clean out everything?

[@DNAHighPerformanceFilters]

Hello Motorings, concerning the cylindrical air filters the concept will be the same. Our suggestion is to use running water from the outside of the air filter and thoroughly flush it down. Unfortunately it will be a bit more difficult but we do not believe you will have any issues.

Just forked out over £40 for a filter for motorcycle, only to find out now I need another £20 for a bloody cleaning kit. Thanks for telling us that first DNA. Anyone got any bright ideas they can be done with easily available product that isn’t going to empty your pocket?

[@DNAHighPerformanceFilters]

Hello Johny, thank you for your purchase. Please note that when you buy a new filter is ready to be installed. You will need the service kit after 13-15,000 kms depending on the use. As our products are washable , you need our cleaner and oil to service the product and re-use it. Also please note that depending on the filter the service kit can last from 3 to 10 times servicing your filter. We are sorry that you didn't know about this but we state it almost everywhere we can. Anything else you may need, please do not hesitate to contact us.

[@CaptainNoDoze]

Enough oil for 12 cleanings. Enough cleaner for 3 cleanings.

I had so many questions before seeing this video. ALL my questions have now been answered... Thank You!!!

[@DeanosRides]

Hi guys. Loving my DNA filter, but it is now time to clean it. I have a 2015 Yamaha MT-07. How do you clean this filter? Do I start on the inside with the brushing or only the outside? Also with the oiling, do I oil the inside and leave it or the outside to go through? Please help.

[@DNAHighPerformanceFilters]

Hello Deanos, you should clean from the outside in. Brushing should done on the inside of the air filter . You leave it to dry and then you should apply the oil from the outside. Anything else you may need please do not hesitate to contact us.

[@DeanosRides]

Can we blow dry the filter??

[@DNAHighPerformanceFilters]

Hello Hamza, unfortunately no. if you blow dry the air filter you will destroy the cotton and you wont achieve the 98-99% filtering efficiency we offer.

Thank you for the vid, I just installed a DNA filter on the Meteor 350 and it sounds and performs better. How often should you clean a filter on a street bike? 😎

[@caslanidis6135]

i have a question? Why are there small holes on the filter when you it through the light you can see small holes in a millimeter?

[@clapclapscream]

That’s why oiling properly is important, it’s surely to help with airflow

[@adic4553]

Do I need to put oil on a brand new air filter out of the box? Or is it plug and play?

[@DNAHighPerformanceFilters]

All of our products come pre-oiled from our factory and ready to be used.

[@BalticHomeImprovement]

Can i use spray bottle to apply product? I think that would be much easier

[@DNAHighPerformanceFilters]

Hello Gerald, yes you can but you have to use our DNA oil and you have to be careful with the amount you will spray on the filter. We can tell you the exact grams of oil you need for your filter. You can send us an email at [e-mail] with you part number and we can inform you asap. Thanks, DNA High Performance Filters

Which side you gonna apply oil ?

[@DNAHighPerformanceFilters]

Either side will be fine. The oil will be absorbed from the cotton and will distribute everywhere.

So instead of the intake ingesting dirt, it ingests oil. Got it.

shame the pods keep popping off,dont fit as good as K&N or even cheap chinese pods

[@DNAHighPerformanceFilters]

Have you cleaned them from the release agent they have from the factory? If you fit them correctly, not overtight them and clean them from the release agent they wont pop off. Unfortunately the competition is using cheap chinese materials that dont need a release agent for demoulding and as a result the quality and dimensions are not ok and the DNA level. If you need any help please do not hesitate to contact our R&D at [e-mail] and the guys will be more than happy to assist you.
