I'm from Germany, we do not have much dust/sand here, so im going to do this maybe once a year in the winter and thats ok for me. I guess if you are living in a desert area it might be a bit of a pain in the ass but its getting a routine. Grab yourself a beer for the job and everything is good. At least in my opinion.

We live in Romania, and yes here we have a lot of dust we ride in the city,but i think once a year as you said is perfect! As I said before it takes some time but it is easy!

I'm a Honda guy but I admit that the T7 comes with all the high-standard factory features.

I changed my air filter after 12 months riding and 20,000 kilometers travel. The filter was like new and did not need changing. Next time I will change it will be after 2 years. It's not a difficult job, it's not a fun job, it takes just an hour or so if you are in no hurry and relaxed about it.

It's unbelievably ridiculous... You even have to remove the dashboard. On the bright side, it helps you get to know your motorcycle better. :)

not realy an issue , removing the dash takes like 3 min, and yes it helps a lot ! in the back of the dash there is the hidden socket plug ! 🙂

Is it really necessary to remove the speedo console to gain access to the airfilter?
@bluevalkyrie2517Ай бұрын
Yes, but it is EZ to remove. Honda made the TRANSALP body parts much better to work on than other models like the AFRICA TWIN.

Clip the tabs off the inner panel and nothing forward of the tank needs removing. takes me half an hour including having a beer and a scoob. 👍

Yes it is necessary but it takes like 3 minutes to take it out!😊

I mean it's a bit more of a hassle but having the air filter that high means you get to swim deeper 😂
