The plastic air intake is designed to NOT suck-in water in some heavy rain conditions, where the performance filter clearly says - race use only :)
I have one in my SM650. Loving it 👍🏻
Thats awesome, I can honestly say it is money well spent. Thanks for watching 😀
Awesome video, very informative, thanks for making it 😀
Thanks for stopping by to watch the video, hope it helped.
I fitted the Hitchcocks DNA air filter last year. Contented grin on my face as i used my late wifes glass gravy jug to let the filter oil soke in. After it had drained i installed it and left the bike ticking over for nearly 15-minutes. I found the engin ran cooler. And was just a little more responsive even in 6th gear at 40mph. Getting up to 70mph was much better. But i dont believe the hype of gaining 10bhp? Two or three maybe? But i didnt buy the 650 Super Meteor for speed. Safe cruising dude 👍...
Awesome, I defiantly noticed a difference after fitting, even that extra noise put a smile on my face. I agree acceleration is much better.There is a lot of hype on BHP but agree with you it is minimal but the thought of the engine breathing better is enough for me.....Thanks for the reply and watching...safe riding 👍
Great Video 👍… Did an air box mod a few years ago on a Triumph Bonny 2015 last of the air cooled and the official instructions for that mod was idle the bike for the same amount of time as you did so the bikes ecu can learn and then take for a ride after…Sounds like your bikes running well so it’s adapted to the changes 👍. You would definitely know if it didn’t… so great stuff and keep up with the videos as they are great. Just bought a super meteor myself, first day with it… Very happy. Anyway I’ve subscribed … keep the good info coming and shiny side up 👍👍👍👍👍
Many thanks for watching & subscribing. The new ECU's are very clever and can detect change and adjust accordingly. Im impressed with the filter.Well done on your new purchase they are great bikes. Happy Biking 👍👍🤌
Thanks for this video..new subscriber
Many thanks for watching and subscribing. Will be uploading more videos in the New Year👍
Hey! Lovely video and thank you for the info! I have a question in case anyone could help me...I'll soon have the bike delivered and I was wondering if its okay to install the air filter as soon as I get the bike. Does it hurt the breaking in of the engine, does it help or it doesnt rly matter? Thx in advance!
Thanks for watching its much appreciated. The funny thing is I waited until the first 300 mile service before installing mine. But the mechanic who serviced my bike mentioned about fitting a DNA filter and I asked the question could I have fitted one before the service and he said it would do no harm at all, just got to run the bike in as normal. He also recommended I fit a NGK CR8EIX IRIDIUM spark plug which I did....I have done a video on that. Hope that helps, enjoy your bike 👍
Did you get the stage 2 filter cover with the air filter or did you buy seperately
It came as part of a kit. accessories.hitchcocksmotorcycles.com/49201?cont_page=Royal-Enfield-650-Super-Meteor-Accessories 👍
Does the oil is used within the installation or only as a maintenance of the filter?
It comes pre oil when purchased but you can buy oil when its time for a service. Thanks for watching... www.dnafilters.com/en/categories/dna-service-kit
Any noticeable difference in the sound?
Yes there is noticeable difference in noise, there is an amplified intake noise, the bike has a bit of a roar. What with the lovely added tone from your stock pipes the bike certainly sounds much better. Thanks for watching 👍
i don't like the airbox sound
Its a subtle change of note but does sound good to the ears whilst cruising. Its not too loud. Thanks for watching.@@mototom9086
what are the benefits of an DNA air filter?
Much better throttle response, & a lovely noise form the air induction. Thanks for watching 👍
@@Butlers_Bike_life Thank you very much for the info. I may add it to mine as well. Ride safe.

i dont think a new filter is necessary, just remove the snorkel on the the air filter box. it just clips on/off.
that seems to be whats restricting the flow.
A DNA filter smooths the air flow stream as it passes through the filter. This helps to reduce turbulence by sending clean air to the engine intake. High, unified, and smooth air flow are crucial for bike performance, so you can expect increased torque and horsepower when you use a DNA air filter. One other great feature of a DNA air filter is that the oil they use creates a small static charge. That means even the tiniest particles won’t get into your engine because the charge naturally pulls things towards it - and keeps them there until you’re ready to clean your filter. DNA air filters are made from marine grade 5000 series aluminum. They feature a unique "wrap & fill" and a precisely calculated wire diameter that is designed to fit into your existing factory air box. They are known for high tensile strength and elasticity that lasts the lifetime of the filter.
It has several layers of material including:
Cotton
Wire mesh
Filtering media
Filter oil
DNA PU
DNA EVA

Does the instructions for the dna kit tell you to let the bike tick over for 10 minutes of are you just following the so called UA-cam /Internet experts,
Well there is a lot of videos out there that tell you about the tick over process. I was very hesitant about replacing the filter but I spoke to a friend who is a motor cycle mechanic who explained to me that all new bikes have an ECU which has adaptive learning and will adjust for changes in intake and exhaust. So therefore for best practice it is suggested to let the bike tick over so the ECU can do its adjusting. He said to do the same if fitting after market exhausts. For the sake of a few minutes there is nothing to loose but when you think about it, it does make sense. I'm well happy with the filter. But sorry, no it doesn't say in the instructions. Thanks for watching the video 👍
@@Butlers_Bike_life hitchcocks have a new video out that shows fitting the dna kit on a hunter and running it on the dyno with no mention of doing it, do you not think dna know more about the ecu and there kit than your friend
Have you enquired with Hitchcocks ? Be interesting to hear their take on it. @@hunterrider349
I have just e-mailed Hitchcocks for clarification regarding the adaptive ECU.
@@Butlers_Bike_life please can you post the reply when you receive it, very interested too hear what they say,I don't want to be argumentative but I'm fed up with people keep repeating this with no actual proof it works or indeed were it came from
