    Settle down everyone. The extra time spent on the filter is because this is a biodegradable product, not a petroleum-based product. The soaking and drying times are different.

    It is interesting to see how you want it done. I have a (recently acquired) 2006 KDX with a Twin Air filter.

    Use should also grease the filter where it meets the mount, I use motorex life long grease to get a good seal to stop water or debris forcing its way behind the filter.

      And then how do you remove it? I guess it will not come out with bio cleaner.

      Nuno Sousa the grease does wash out with motorex cleaner. Essential for a proper seal.. it states in most owners manuals to do this

      Nuno Sousa I use the twin air Bio sealant. Take it off with contact cleaner around the filter housing and the bio cleaner takes it off in the bucket when cleaning.

    How long can you prep a filter and leave it in a zip lock for before it needs used? I have 4 filters and was gonna prep all of them, but I don’t want to waste the effectiveness of the oil or impact the oil breaking the filter down somehow if left for a period of time.

      That means your filter is seized. Does it still shift properly, and does the filter stop the bike when you press on it? If not you may need new brake pads.

      Then your dust comes into the engine😂😅…
      The oil is sticky and so keeps the dirt/dust on the filter. Without oil the dust/dirt can move threw the filter.

      @@badlix2309 Hey, i guess it wouldn‘t really do the job because the oil won‘t stay very long on the filter. It‘s just to fluid, it will run out of the filter and make a huge mess in your motorcycle. I really wouldn‘t recommend to do that. Just buy a 1L Can of Filter Oil and watch a tutorial how to oil your filter and you are good.

      There is a BIO Filter Oil from Twin Air that does this Job perfekt. And with the BIO Cleaner you can even wash it out in a Bucket when the filter is really dirty. The Bio Version is nice because you can fill the sewage into the sink without harming the environment. With the normal Oil etc. you have to collect the toxic water and bring it to the landfill.
