Air filters

#1 PostAuthor: corpy » Fri Jul 15, 2011 11:06 pm

My KZ 1100 engine is partially stripped at the moment so this is a good time to clean the K & N-type air filters. Do I need to buy special cleaner or is a shaking in weak washing-up solution ok?
Do I have to oil them after they have dried out?
Thanks

you need to wash out in a solvent of some type - blow with air line from inside to outside until dry - then re- oil using K & N filter oil

Most 'car' places sell these kits now;

If you dig around on the internet you'll find it for less.
