DNA in SA
Good day.
Seems that DNA filters importers into SA have vanished from the earth. Is the K&N filters not the same material and construction as DNA?. K&N very good representation here, can i use their cleaning an re-oiling kits? Cheers Gerhard |
Quote:
K&N do not make a stage 2 filter, they do make the main filter which is the same as a DNA. |
Thanx KEV.
This will be my solution then.. GB |
I can still get you the DNA stg 1 and 2 filters. Last week my supplier had stock and they normally can send to you overnight. PM me if you are interested.
|

Soon thru www.xt660.com , prices you can find at www.e-dnafilters.com Thanks Dino |
Had a wee look at the DNA website there and all nice and pretty but it might be me but what is a Stg 3 filter, surely that would just a massive air box that is all filter.:paranoid:

The DNA Stage 3 � this is a complete new air box modification that will replace the existing stock air box, including a DNA special filter. Stay tuned and soon you will find out more! Dino |

??DNA range and cleaning
Was wondering how long a Stage 1 and 2 filter will last before it starts affecting performance or cause damage?...how do i "see" it.
Going on a 5 day trip into the unknown, will be traveling in group of about 6 guys, riding approx 2000km, 80% dirtroads. Clogging up of filter due to dust will certainly cause it to clog up fast....what do you do if you out in the field and no cleaning / re-oil kit with you?. With old paper filter you can still get rid of maybe most of dirt and dust by shaking and blowing it out....cotton filters with oil there is no alternative??? |
No Worries..

If you are using DNA filters, you can ride the bike for 15.000 -20.000 km before it is necessary to clean them, even under the worst conditions. An easy way to check the condition of the filters is to see if the external wire mesh (dirty side) is visible. If you can see the wire you can continue using the filters, if the wire is buried in the dirt (see attachment) you must clean them. Now concerning the stock paper filter, the worst thing someone can do is blow the filter, the only acceptable solution is to change it, if you really care for your engine. I have posted info concerning the paper filters, please read: http://www.xt660.com/showpost.php?p=89366&postcount=29 In the extreme case that you will need to clean your DNA filters, it is possible as long as you have 2-3 hours to spare(drying the filter takes time), you will need to carry a DNA service kit, which is small enough to carry, wash the filter (like washing clothes), dry the filter (under the sun), re-oil strictly using DNA oil and the DNA applicator. The complete procedure can be done in the country side, even using water from a lake or river! Very simple! I hope the above helps you, enjoy your ride, Best regards, Dino |
Hi Dino. Now this is the best news i have heard in very long time.
I'm sure some of my fellow dust riders will be glad to hear that too... Unless i will go on world tour, im sure i won't have need to clean on local trips and worry about it. Give you ore time for a :bbq[1]: and somebeers after a ride thanx GB |

I'm very statisfied with my DNA filter. It keeps out the dirt when driving the motorcross track (
http://www.xt660.com/showthread.php?...hlight=offroad) ;)
Cleaned it yesterday after spending 7 hours at the track. Take a look at the pics. The front is full of dirt as the backside is clear. |
I've been reading up on here about the DNA stage 2 filters and I'd like like something clearing up.
From a lot of what I've read, apparently when fitting the stage 2 filter the bike will gain about 3hp ish. But other things I've read said that the bike will run lean and will need a power commander and dyno time to get the map right. But then apparently the stage 2 is the best hp/money comprimise? So how does that work if buying a �60 bolt on filter means you've then got to get a �280 power commander? What I'm asking is, if I bought a stage 2 filter, do I really need to get a power commander? because really, for what its worth, its a lot of money to shell out! |
Quote:
There are many fuelling devices to chose from besides the power commander, I make the cheapest fuelling devise that will do the job just fine. You can buy one from here. http://cgi.ebay.com.au/ws/eBayISAPI....m=130321031091 http://www.xt660.com/site/node/136 Or make you own, if you are a handy man. http://www.xt660.com/site/node/53 |
Ahaa, Now I see.
Now as much as I like the idea of the of the mod because its nice and cheap and you get to customise it yourself, and I'm plenty confident to do it (I'm an apprentice mechanical engineer) I take it that cutting and soldering wires would void the warranty? I only ask because I only picked the bike up sunday and have only done a few hundred miles on it and with a 2 year warranty, I'd just prefer to do such bolt ons like the stage 1/2 filters and a set of nice cans because they're reversable. |
Quote:
Mods affecting warranty. Just to clear up things, any addition to the wiring or any mod to a motorcycle will void warranty of the replacement part, if the mod can be proven to be the fault or cause of the failure of the component. |
Cheers for clearing that up Kev!
So rather than soldering the wires, would I be able to get away with using some spade connectors and a little electrical insulation grease just to seal it so that if I did wish to undo it in the future I can? I set the CO1 to 20 yesterday, from 14, stopped a lot of the low speed surging. Pulled the snorkle out last night and took it for a ride again. Surging was back so I upped the CO1 to 24, rides nicely now with very little surging. I'm very tempted to buy the Stage 2 filter and the kev mod at some point. Seeing as i'll soon be coming up for the 600 mile service in 2 weeks I'll leave the stage 1 for the mean time. |
You can use connectors as long as you solder the wires to the connectors.
You guys have sure bad corrosion problems over there, that any resistance in the connectors or wiring will cause the bike to misbehave, that's why I solder my mod to the wiring loom & have never had a problem with the mod in the UK. |
Yeah, thats why I mention about putting a little grease in the connectors themselves to stop the damp getting in. Will have to see, got to get it first!
|
Kev, I just read something in another thread there that the 2009 XT's cant use the Kevmod because they've got the O2 sensor that adjusts fuelling anyway. So that means that theres a couple of horses that I'm going to miss out on then or is there something else that I can do?

You can use the kev fuel mod on any XT we just had problems with a few 07 models, I have sold a few Kev fuel mods for 08 & 09 models with no problems. |
Hey Kev,:YouRock:
