Hey bud. I wanted to make a comment as I have raced for years and actually worked for/with an air filter company. Please understand I'm not "sniping" you or giving you a hard time. You said that the manufacturers sacrifice filtration for airflow. That's not correct. OEM filters sacrifice air flow for cost and ease of maintenance. In terms of cost, paper filters are just that... cheap. It's a compromise. Furthermore emissions factor in. What you're not mentioning is that aftermarket non oem filters (which you pay a premium for) use different materials that A. flow better due to said material and B. are used by enthusiasts that will take extra time to work on their machine. Two popular air filter materials are gause (K&N) and foam (Twin Air). Both have advantages and disadvantages but do not sacrifice particulate filtration for airflow. Due to the nature of the material, they flow better by their nature. Foam filters require more maintenance, are cheaper, but have diminishing returns. The particulates caught in the filter can not be completely washed out. Gause filters flow better and can be washed better but are inferior in sandy conditions without a pre-filter. I recommend HIGHLY taking that air intake pre filter off. As I stated you'll be blocking more particulate materials, but you're sacrificing airflow and more importantly air temperature. IAT's are crucial on vehicle without mass air sensors. Finally if you're worried about particulate ingestion make sure you're actually getting foreign material past the filter. I recommend using a borescope to see what your situation is past the filter. And AND if you are getting particulate ingestion, then it's more likely an airbox seal issue and not the filter. I hope this helps and I'm not coming across as a dick. If you look at my channel, all we do is race offroad. The can ams I race have a pre-filter on our cvt's and the first thing we do is remove it as in sandy races the dust build up super heats the cvt. It's better to blow out the cvt and change a belt then DNF a race or melt a belt. Conversely it's better to have a little bit of dirt in your filter than your fuel controller having to dump fuel and foul plugs due to an air restriction issue. I dunno, something to think about. I'm wrong all the time, but just some food for thought.
An easy way to know if dust is getting into the air filter box is to apply a thin layer of Vaseline inside the air box. Check after a week to see if there is any dust.
I ride a 2016 gen 1 duke 390 here in JAPAN, I replaced the Air filter and added the open lid mod to the bike, and I eliminated the snorkel. Currently going to change the sprocket and add an MSD ignition, and a rekluse Torqdrive clutch. This bike is perfect for running around considering how ridiculous the traffic can get around here in Japan. Fuel X is next after all that, thinking about changing the Airbox and maybe the injector?
Hi again. I managed to install the fuel X lite without removing the tank. Not sure how 🤣. The FuelX + lamda sesor plugs are on the left side now. Exactly in front of this black cover that you point at 16:42. I like it that way, as it's easy to unplug for testing the before and after scenarios. My only concern is, Will the engine heat spoil the plug or wires if I keep it this way?
Great video. I love my FuelX lite. I put it on with 24 miles on the bike. I am half way in on break in mileage. I can’t wait to feel the full force after break in. They say the power jumps up after the service.
Really? That’s interesting. I just took my bike out yesterday…unbelievable difference. The lid filter is definitely helping out as well. Will be uploading shortly.
@@Ntmoffi I hit break in and did the service and reset the light, no difference that I noticed, but you doget the higher revs/more power. Maybe that is what everyone is talking about?
Has anything changed on your bike how you filter air? My bike came new from the showroom floor with the UniFilter system installed. Even a spare pre oiled foam filter was under the seat in a zip lock bag !
@@advinjapan BTW I still think the FuelX Lite was worth the upgrade. My bike wouldnt start at first crank, even the day I picked it up it didnt start first time the dealer pushed the button. I didnt think anything other than oh its gotta be cold, but it did it every time for weeks. Since I installed the FuelX it starts first time everytime. So I'd say get the FuelX even if you dont do any mode to the airbox.
Did this install today referring your video. Thanks. However, after the installation I have ridden the bike for a few kms. Not noticing any remarkable difference interms of low end torque or smoother quickshifting. The throttle response however has improved marginally. Wondering if the the unit is supposed to tune itself over a period of time 🤔
Have you had your first service? I also have hear it does take some time for it to adjust to your riding. It is perhaps most noticeable if you use it with a a filter upgrade (stage 1 and most with stage 2).
@@advinjapan Yeah. I have completed 3 services already. One had the KTM firmware upgrade as well. Mine is the late 2022 version. I suspect they got rid of the issues to some extent on the latter versions. Hence the difference might not be noticable. I will monitor however. My next job is tho install the aux lamps and then tucking the Veridian Cruise module inside the headlamp unit. Again. I am referring your videos 😀
watching the video, you rotated the fuel tank clockwise both times, so u done a 360 on the fuel line 🤨 r u sure there's no bent lines left after your job?
@EvgeniX. I could have used your comment a few months ago when problems started happening. Omg, it took me 3 days of diagnosing as the wire came loose slowly over time. It’s a miracle I discovered it.
Have you faced any issues with water creeping through the lid air filter ?. I tried a pressure wash with the stock air box cover and i could see water on top of the lid. What changes have you made to cope with the situation ( rain riding) ?
Hey, thanks for the comment. I too have done pressure washer tests and a small amount of water makes its way in the pillion seat area. I’ve never had water in the filter itself. I actually don’t use this filter on long trips because of the risk of rain. The only time I use it is when I know I’m going off road, close by and the weather is good.
@@advinjapanI found your mods very interesting and I bought a BMC air-filter and i came to know that before installing the lid filter, it is recommended to use a fuel injector controller . So i bought the newly lunched fuel x pro plus which is claimed to have increase torque by 25% on par throttle. I tested the product extensively and i found no difference in performance. Without fuel-x , fuel-x mode 1, fuel-x mode 3, fuel-x mode 8 and fuel-x mode 10 . Has same idling RPM. Same speed at 4k RPM at 1st,2nd and 3rd gear. Same speed and similar knocking issue (at identical rpm) on no-throttle at 1st, 2nd and 3rd gear. I contacted the support team and as per them fuel-x is working fine but they are unable to explain why i am not seeing performance difference. It would be great if you can do a video on with fuel-x and without fuel-x performance difference on closed loop. Is it really making a difference or just an illusion ?. I cannot find a video on youtube where influencers technically comparing with fuel-x and without fuel-x.
Hey arun, thanks a lot. That might be something worth doing. I do have a reader now so I can see diagnostics. 25% seems a bit out of the realm of possibility. I think the biggest gains come from using it in conjunction with after market filter. Stick around and I might do something like this for you.
Hey man, nice vid thanks. I live in Japan too and ride a Vitpilen 401, which has the same engine as your KTM. I bought the DNA and K&N filters on Amazon, should be arriving soon. Couple questions: (i) Where did you buy you FuelX Lite? (ii) are the filters & the FuelX Shaken proof? Keep it up!
Thanks a lot! What part of Japan? I purchased the fuelx straight from their website. And yes, both the filter and the fuelx will pass shaken no problems.
Kamakura is about an hour from me. I’m in northern Saitama. We should ride sometime. I’ll be passing through Kamakura here in a few weeks. You’re welcome to join me for part of the way.
Yeah, much easier and cleaner. Plus, as one commenter mentioned, by learning how to remove the fuel tank, you’ve gotten yourself one (big) step closer to learning how to change the spark plug. Good luck!
Finally installed my fuelx thanks to this video. Also had to lift the tank the cable was way in there. Cutting a few zipties helped alot. Very easy job and the results are noticeable. Its a big improvement i dont have to downshift as much and it feels very smooth.
I have this bike. I wish it was quicker and faster. But the bottom line after 35 years of dealing with bikes I can afford not bikes I would love to have..... You always cause issues when trying to get more out of these bikes. Its just a fact.
I do appreciate the concern Mike🙏. To some degree you are correct. Most bikes just do what they are supposed to do. Adding anything extra tends to push them to places they weren't necessarily designed to go. That’s said, these are pretty light upgrades.
Excellent! Excellent! You’re ticking off all the performance mods for the adv 390. Exhaust only thing left. Now join us on the darkside and Decat the bike 👺 I’m using the Coober decat header + Best Dual Sport Bikes Exhaust End Cap mod (which is cheaper then buying a new exhaust slip-on).
Except for Europe and may be some parts in US and Canada, this is not recommended! I live in India and I can't possibly think of running without the OEM filter set-up because of dust and pollution!!
Hey Stephen, it’s been near 100 degrees with 80% humidity here lately. Just haven’t been able to get on the bike. It’s coming soon though, I promise👍. Just to give you an idea, fantastic smoothening in the lower gears with a bit of added power as well.
Weird how you had to take the tank off. My green o2 connector was right behind the left side cover about left of center of the bike and took about 5 min to unplug after cutting 3 zip ties and pulling it down.
I just watched it😳. I’ve already taken off the old filter for my Hokkaido trip, but I didn’t check the airbox for debris, I will now. Thanks a lot, Tom🙏.
Hello, Appreciate your hardwork into getting to know things. So the final conclusion of Quantitative and Qualitative has summed up to clean air. Yes the point of desert/dusty places sure would help with pre-filter. - India
Sweet, finally! Silly people with big hands AND now we know how to change the spark plug! Hope you enjoy the difference! My ABS tends to kick in a bit when I shift to 2nd while goosing it. 😂
You should take extra care from now on while riding in rain and when washing the bike. There's a great possibility that water could enter from under the seat. I suggest that you use the stock airbox lid for those conditions.
Fantastic video as usual, nice demonstration of the impact of using the airbox lid filter. I suspect you'll notice a big difference with the airbox lid filter but curious how you feel about the sound.
@@tsdmoto it's dependent on where you live. In very dusty areas it's a must. If not, then it doesn't add much of anything. If you go that route, be sure to clean that thing often or you could restrict airflow.
Hey Antonio, are you talking about the high fender on the front? This is a Polisport fender, DIY attached: #17 - KTM 390 Adventure | Budget High Fender Hack ua-cam.com/video/7smeVe_2Dhs/v-deo.html
This is great Sachin, thanks. Though the stalling issue is not necessary isolated to one single problem. The spark plug has also been a related issue, as well as pinched fuel lines. Finally, rider skill needs to be considered as well. The 390 has a very fast rpm roll off when cutting the throttle, which can also stall the bike if you aren’t feathering the clutch or downshifting properly. I feel like a lot of the stalling “problems” could be avoided simply by managing the clutch/ throttle and gear shifting better (myself included 😅).
The issue that I see with adding an airbox lid that includes a high-performance (i.e. high flow) filter is that most air is then bypassing the main filter. Start the engine and check the amount of air actually flowing through the snorkel. It is probably very little.
Hey BigBlue, I see you on almost every Husqvarna/KTM video. I'm curious what setup you are running on your bike? Aftermarket air filter? FuelX? Powertronic?
I just installed the DNA lid and TuneX Lite. Seems like smoother throttle response down low and perhaps a bump in the upper mid range. Definitely a throatier intake sound when accelerating.
Just put the fuel x on my 23 and wow it was simple.......... connector was right there and easy to grab...... had to pull side panels and lift tank just to get wires routed back to the battery.....
@@advinjapan I had more issues getting to the injector when putting on the fuel programmer....... am running both fuel X light and a BSDB programmer and bike runs great.
@@blastradiu5 I was trying to get rid of the surging at lower rpms and it has seemed to help. The fuel x only works up to the point where the BDSB kicks in. Talked to the guy who sells them and he did not see an issue piggy backing them together. So far it has worked out well.
I have put on my adv 250 but couldn’t find were to put the ground after seeing your video I finally put the ground as you had kept it’s working smoothly and power
@@advinjapan Thanks. I was shipped the Duke/RC one but Powertronic tells me it's the same. Not sure if I should get rid of it or try it. Gotta wonder, why label them differently if they're "the same"?
Yeah you got me on that one, not sure why there’s a difference in model name. The instruction in my box are for the Duke so 😂. You should be fine, it just the connector that needs to fit the bike.

An easy way to know if dust is getting into the air filter box is to apply a thin layer of Vaseline inside the air box. Check after a week to see if there is any dust.
You HAVE TO leave the stock filter in the box, you heros.
You are creating a second INLET.
Without the filter INSIDE, the box has aN unfiltered HOLE.

Yeah, sorry my video cut off, GoPro overheated. It just goes on the battery negative.👍
@@advinjapan same problem so I sold my GoPro last time it just went blank
Oh bummer, sorry to hear that. Overheating is a problem though with all action cameras. Doesn’t matter what you have.
@@advinjapan ya so do you do long tours
@@advinjapan if then try to come northeast India for the tour we a having ride for northeast tour Ktm adv
On your Fuelx Lite box, does it indicate "KTM Duke/RC 390 (2012-2022) NBX-KTM-DR-390-L"?
Hey H M, I ordered the KTM 390 Adventure model (2020-2022) NBX-KTM-AD-390-L.
@@advinjapan Thanks. I was shipped the Duke/RC one but Powertronic tells me it's the same. Not sure if I should get rid of it or try it. Gotta wonder, why label them differently if they're "the same"?
Who did you order from?
Yeah you got me on that one, not sure why there’s a difference in model name. The instruction in my box are for the Duke so 😂. You should be fine, it just the connector that needs to fit the bike. ADV and Duke are identical so, should be fine 👍. I’m out here now trying her out…mate, unbelievable power boost!
