I opened the airbox today to clean the filter (k&n)again after
exactly 2 weeks(is that a long time?)and was horrified by what i saw.
The "Dirty" side of the airbox had dust,leaves,small brunches and a womans
hair(not mine!) The filter had a thick layer of dyed oil mixed with dust
and the "clean" side of the airbox was not clean at all.it had dust,engine oil
and a handfull of small small gravel.
I now think the airbox is small,insufficient,misslocated and responsible for
the death of many innocent xt engines.
I dont want my engine to suffer from all that dirt that makes it through
but i also dont want to spend the rest of my weekends cleaning air filters
any sugestions?

hi
leave the filter alone its just doing is job the dirty it get the more it filters strange but true I have done 1million miles same filter cleaned once a year worked fine

cheers nobby

As long as its clean on the clean side.. chill out.
