Question Air filters?

Hi All,

Just having a look round my bike and pulled the air filters out. The side one is a DNA but the inner one is OEM. Is this a common set up, or do people normally change both? Is it worth replacing with a DNA one given it has the DNA side one?

The DNA Stage 2 which is fitted to the side of the box is the one that gives you more performance and it is also a filter for life if you buy the DNA regenerating kit it has a bottle with the cleaner and a spray that re-oil the filaments / waves.

The OEM its only good for 8'000 miles MAX and should be changed now we also recommend you get the DNA equivalent of the OEM because it is designed and proven to have more performance and once again with the kit you can have it for life, just clean it and re oil every season, depending on the amount of riding you do through the year.

Here is the kit you need

Here is the DNA filter you should get to replace the OEM:

And here is a video on how to clean them

Thanks Captain! I was wondering if the one on teh side negated changing the one inside if it flowed enough. As it doesn't I shall order one up. I prefer cleanable filters anyway.

Any idea why it would have some tape along the top? Stop water dripping off the side panel or suchlike?

Just put the bike back together and then spied these in my toolbox where i'd put everything else I'd undone! Dmaned if I know where they're from though? Anyone? Bueller?

The two bits are from the battery cover I think. I Just put a new battery on my bike today and the cover that go’s over the battery has two bolts that bolt it down the two bits you have should go in the hole of the cover then the bolts acts like a washer.99.% sure that’s what they are. As look the same as what I just used today. Ps I have a DNA outer filter and a K&N Iner filter
