Hi Guys,

Any of you that have concerns if the DNA filter is good for off- road use or in desert conditions use, please visit the following link:
http://www.advrider.com/forums/showthread.php?t=440368&highlight=FILTERS

and let me know your opinion.

I strongly believe that the above thread is the absolute answer, for existing and future customers concerns if the DNA cotton filter is better than a foam filter for
off- road use..!!!
Waiting for your comments,

Dino Nikolaidis

This is a tough one. In Holland, the message is spread that the K&N and DNA filters are not as good as paper filters for off-road and dusty conditions. Foam filters are the best but need more maintenance.

I am no expert in filters and can not contribute to the discussion. But I am a little bit suprised that the DNA website does not discuss this issue. Also, wouldn't it be nice if your racing department would show a couple of MX or Rallye riders? I am very interested in DNA's view on this issue.

Just my 2 cents ...

Sometime, Jenny, you suspiciously sound like you miss most news that are happening down here in UK. To quickly bring you up to speed, the man that goes by the username DNA is none other than Dino Nikoliadis, MD of DNA Filters Ltd Greece. And guess what? He just joined the forum to promote his products and to put to rest a rumour maliciously spread by DinoJet that DNA Filters were no longer being imported in UK when in fact they are. Furthermore there might be a chance that if

and DNA agree on some contractual terms that maybe in the near future, people might even be able to buy those filters directly from

if not there will be still a bunch of official UK distributors where these excellent filters can be found.

Thanks for bringing me up to speed Fran - I didn't intend to sound facetious, only that I've seen other threads (admittedly on other forums) that are thinly veiled ads (which most moderators/site hosts don't like)... I'm glad that you have a good relationship with Dino, and are helping to correct any miss-information that might be about...

I look forward to hearing more about his products, and who knows, even trying one x

Hi Dino - no problem, I wasn't fully aware of the situation (until CaptMoto explained), and when I see links to anything that is posted on ADVrider, I always take what is said with a pinch of salt...

I'm interested in your filters myself... I presumed it was similar to the K&N system which you also lightly oil with a spray before installation? (I used one of their filters on my XR650R for a few thousand miles, before reverting to the foam and oil type UNI filter for racing...) However, it looks like your system remains dry (like the stock filter) presumably?

I'd certainly be interested in the comparision with your filter & airbox lid compared to the stock Yamaha set-up...
