Watch this before you throw your motorcycle's paper air filter! | Paper Air Filter Cleaning

Clean your paper/viscous air filter with petrol and give it a new life.
Sometimes, you may want to clean the filter instead of replacing it.
Warning: Risk of fire when handling petrol. Try this at your own risk!

Thanks, this is useful. Here in Portugal a new filter for a Honda Vision scooter costs €17.00 and with travel on dusty roads I need a clean filter after 500km. So for half a litre of petrol this is a winner. I will do 2 or 3 filters at the same time.

17 dollars whoa in india its like 4 dollars or even less in a routine service recommended by company.

I just wash mine with dishwasher and wome water not very wome and i use more cold water and is working very nice😊

[@ke_ag]

Literally just use any solvent, there's no reason to use expensive and dangerous gasoline.

[@Bricklinsv1970]

I clean mine with beer than piss on it and it works great good as new ;)

Again,it is not easy to buy air filter in a certain type of motorcycle

[@lel3450]

@@lejugertell me about it’s a bitch and a half to find a air filter for a like 150i. Why not buy foam cut it to size a boom.

[@Shambashamble]

filter price isnt 60 pesos a liter of gasoline

[@meta5291]

I'm sure the characteristics of the filter have changed. Better try a foam filter equivalent.

[@gobindachowdhury8947]

Thankyou

[@damonsmit5445]

Thanks for the tip!!! was thinking of replacing my filter but I'll try this first!

[@dmx3838]

It could harm your quality of filter and filter gasket. Just buy new one wht taking risks

[@laurencefeby]

You could try buffing pads cleaner spray.

[@rosshendry8589]

Nice one 👍

[@abhishekpareek1918]

It's cheaper to buy new filter instead of using so much petrol

[@csstudent-W8]

no , mine bike filter cost 300rs and 100 rs petrol enough i think and can be used to clean other parts like under body of bike and chain

[@abhishekpareek1918]

@@csstudent-W8 if that method is cheaper, you can do that. Although, please don't use petrol to wash the bike chain. It is hard solvent. It does more damage than good.

[@csstudent-W8]

@@abhishekpareek1918 okey atleast remove oil stinks from engine of that petrol and side stand dirts

[@danchesney631]

With the cost of gasoline, & your labour, It would be cheaper to buy a new filter.

[@RollerGuideX]

in some countries, with recession and economic collapse; filters are very expensive. In Sri Lanka, a Honda XR 250 air filter is Lanka Rupee 24,000. Poorest 60% household monthly income is Lanka Rupee 26,000. Just to put things in perspective....
