What is the purpose of an air filter?
While riding, your engine constantly draws in air for the combustion process. However, that air also contains dust, pollen, sand, and other contaminants. The air filter prevents these particles from entering the engine.
A properly functioning air filter ensures that your engine receives a sufficient supply of clean air. This contributes to smooth operation, optimal performance, and a longer engine life.
What happens when an air filter becomes dirty?
Over time, every air filter becomes clogged with dirt and debris. When the filter is restricted, the engine receives less airflow.
Possible consequences include:
- Reduced power
- Slower acceleration
- Increased fuel consumption
- Less responsive throttle performance
Often, riders notice that their motorcycle feels less smooth or responsive without realizing that the air filter may be the cause.

When should an air filter be replaced?
