Keeping your engine supplied with plenty of fresh air is essential to it running at it’s full potential - yet maintaining your air filter is one of the most often overlooked parts of motorcycle maintenance! SUBSCRIBE NOW: / thescooterbud
One of the least glamorous parts of doing regular maintenance on your bike is your air filter. They’re not as sexy as a new set of tires, or as essential oil changes (heck, a lot of people don’t even realize you’re even supposed to change them at all!)
But if you care about having a well-running machine, taking care of your air filter is essential - it’s the gatekeeper between your engine, and the fresh air it needs to burn fuel and create power. Best case, it will be dirty and choke off some air, robbing your engine of power; worst case, if damaged, it will let particles right into your combustion chambers! Taking care of your air filter is pretty important when you think about it.
It’s a good habit to check your air filter every time you change your oil, or after a really dirty off-road ride to see if it’s in need of a replacement or a good scrub down. As mentioned before, a paper filter will just get tossed and replaced when necessary, but foam or cotton filters can be washed, re-oiled and put back in when they’re starting to look dingy. It’s important to do this the right way, however, or you’ll risk damaging the filter and making it completely ineffective.
Riding with a clean air filter lets your engine breathe easily, rev faster, and make maximum power - and those are thing that make every rider happy!
