- How to change the air filter on a Honda ST1300. Changing the air filter on a ST1300 isn't too difficult but obviously not as simple as most motorcycle air filters can be. First of all, it is under the top fuel tank and there doesn't seem to be an easy way to access it. There are a few tricks to gaining access to this filter but I explain them all (I hope). The main thing is how to raise the fuel tank on the ST1300. How to lift the gas tank on the ST1300. This bike is also referred to as the Pan European. How to raise the tank on a Pan European. How to lift the tank on a Pan European. How to change the air filter on a Pan European. How to replace the air filter on a Pan European Honda. I also show how to change the seat height on a Honda ST1300 Pan European. How to raise the seat on a Honda ST1300 Pan European. How to lower the seat height on a Honda ST1300 Pan European.

Excellent video no messing about short and straight to the point very helpful
Glad to help. Thanks for the comment!
Makes it alot easer than others, cheaper than the shop to do...Cheers
I’d imagine a shop would get an hour labor to change an air filter. That would be crazy!!
Thank you. Saved for future reference. Just like the others, I appreciate the quality of the presentation.
You're very welcome! Glad to help out
Excellent vidéo. Precise. Non stupid things we don't care about. 👌
Thank you for the excellent comment!
Excellent video. Short, sweet, and to the point! Thanks!
Thanks for the comment!
Thanks for spending time to help ! Great bike sometimes a PIA to work on because of all the plastic ! Looked in manual and had a heck of a time finding seat latch at first ! Now I know where it is !
Thanks the help
Joe A I had the same problem!
Thank you for taking the time to make such a great video!!
You are very welcome and Thank You for taking the time to leave such a great comment!
Thanks for the video man, this ended up being pretty easy, and my filter was REALLY bad. Bike much happier now. I took it for a nice ride after and man it made a big difference :)
Good deal! Thanks for the comment and be safe out there!!
Thank you well done.
You forgot to make brum! Brum ! In the end
Thank you!
Thanks for such a well edited and straightforward video. Subbed.
Thank you for that great comment!!
Fantastic video and expertly filmed, thanks so much!
I appreciate your comment. Thank you for watching!
Best ST1300 camera work yet - good video
Thanks for the comment!
Exceptional presentation. I will attempt to manifest and maintain your demeanour when I drop my first Phillips head tank screw into never never land :) but his is my first view inside my next bike and what awesome engineering!
Just be careful!
Excellent advice & very well explained. Thank you
Glad you enjoyed it!
Good Job on the video. I have two ST's and I never knew the front seat bracket had a maintenance position LOL
John Gilmour Classic Japanese over engineering.
Clear, concise instructions, thanks.
You're welcome!
Thx for the great teaching. I'm getting one of these real soon. Used to have a CBR1000F and miss it. Can't wait ; )
You will love it! Check out my other ST1300 videos too
Thanks for that. I forgot about having to adjust the seat mechanism and the 10mm bolt.
Your welcome. Enjoy the Ride!
Thanks for your help, mate!!
You’re welcome!
Great vid, thanks for being short and sweet..
You’re welcome. Get that bike ready for a long weekend and enjoy!
Succinct, lucid, clear - excellent job! Thank you as I learnt something useful that will help me do mine.
You are very welcome. Good luck!
I just bought my 4.5th ST1300 ('03) and yet to get it home soon. I had had 2 '03 and 1 '06 before. I had re-purchased my 2nd '03 from the buyer after 2 years! My family suspects major brain damage... Anyway, after trying 'lighter' sport-touring motorcycles, such as, ST2, FJ-09, and a not-so-light GL1800, I decided to return to my trusted village and the faithful donkey again.
@@santanumaitra3962 the ST didn’t t fit me well. I tried to make it work but I’m more into the Heavy weight bikes so I traded it in on an Indian Roadmaster. Couldn’t be happier!!
Well done video for the air filter maintenance. That is one Mean Motor Scooter 🏍
Hopefully not too "mean" Thanks Lloyd.
I have one. It will lift the front wheel at half throttle in 1st.
Outstanding video.
J T thanks for the comment!
Great video thanks 👍
Glad you enjoyed it
Well explained. Thank you!
You’re welcome. Thank you for the comment.
Great video...Thanks
Thanks for the comment. It’s such an inconvenient place to put an air filter, I’m sure there are a few out there that need to get changed.
Excellent video brother
Thank you!!
Great video, thanks
Glad it helped
Quite an easy job if done when the top tank is empty. Nice vid 👍
Thanks for the comment.
yup tank empty makes it much easier, and I left the 2 front screws in the air filter housing in place, Loosen them, took out the rest and then pulled the housing. I tried to pull them out with magnetic screwdriver, however I guess the magnet was not strong enough as they seemed like they were going to come off, so I just unscrewed and pulled the housing off with the screws in the housing, much easier.
Great video, a little helper is replace the air filter with the gas tank fairly low on fuel, with over 6 gallons of fuel when filled it is quite heavy to move around.
Great tip!
Thanks for showing us! I watched this just out of curiosity. I´m owning my third ST 1100 by now and expected that air filter replacement would be just the same. Not at all I would say. But then the ST 1100 of course has the tank under the seat.
Thanks for the comment
Great video learnt how to do, when I eventually buy one of these beauties!!
Mine is for sale, in louisiana
Buy one I got mine in October best bike iv ever had, I’m 63 love the protection from wind, the power is so smooth in any gear but a wee bit heavy when I stopped on way home from dealer and stupidly filled the tank to the tits on way home then nearly dropped it at traffic lights. Great bike tho
2 years on I now have one 🙏🙏
Ditto BCtruck's comment, but the seat removal button is pretty slick!
It took me a while to find that rascal!
Super, merci beaucoup.
vous êtes les bienvenus
thank you top for the explanation .. st 1300 low countries the Netherlands
Awesome! Thanks
Sweet mother of God!! I’m guessing the guy sold the bike when it was time to change that filter. Great tutorial!
It had a bug or two in there. It's good for a while now.
Try doing it on a Concours14. This is actually pretty straight forward.
This seems more fun then the oil filter change was. I write the date, with my full name and address, on all air filters. Thanks for posting and pick one of my least favorite video's for watching the roads.
That is a great idea putting your name in the air filter. Thanks for the tip
The two front screws can be left in position and when loosened will lift in and out easily with the top cover. Don’t try to fish them out just lift the cover out level the screws will stay in there bays and when you reinstall the cover, they will carefully drop right back into the holes they came out…
No use to take the chance fishing or dropping them…
Great tip. Thanks!
I'm guessing that filter element was the same one that came off to begin with, you didn't mention it but I had a quote of $85CDN for that sucker. Nice vid cheers!
I replaced the element but may have done it twice just for the video and used the new filter. I really can't recall. They are expensive but should last a Long Time.
Great video. Love the side tank guards. Where did you find those.
I bought the bike with the mods. The more I look, the more mods I see it has. I doubt that accessory is still available but check around on the ST Owners sites/groups
One suggestion, pick up a couple of the air cover screws. If you drop one, trying to get it out of the abyss, can be a real PIA! ;)
I'm sure that would be a great idea. I sold that bike years ago.
Great video man thank you!
Any chance you can do a speed sensor video? My odometer/speedometer stopped working
I sold that bike and repair manual a year ago. There are St1300 forums that may help you out
Not sure I could do that. 😳 But I did learn what a prop rod is. ☺️
I'm sure you could.
WOW!!! Never seen one that complicated to change. But that big filter should last for a while though.
I agree on both counts! I'll keep it off the dirt roads.
This is positively simple & fun compared to an Africa Twin!
Hi, you are doing very good things. You are great. Your engine is also very nice. I need some parts. The engine failed. Can you help me?
Thanks for the comment. I sold that bike last year. Good luck
Thanks for your excellent video - well done with clear understandable procedure taught well. Please do more😁
I sold the ST1300 but have some Indian Roadmaster videos coming.
여기 대한민국 나도 ST1300 있습니다.
동영상 잘 보았습니다.
자가정비 하면 그 만족감 ~~^^
🤔
Do you have any videos on changing the radiator fluid on a ST1300 or changing out spark plugs.
I haven't changed the coolant but I did the plugs. Its pretty straight forward really.
Great tuturial, thanks for putting it together.
Is that a russel seat? How do you like it?
It is a Corbin. I've always loved the way they feel. Firm but comfortable.
@@JustPlainCommonSense I had a Corbin setup on my CBR, it was comfortable but not enough for longer distances (500-650 miles a day) then again, the bike played a big role in that as well.
@@MRMRS2wheeler I’ve watched your channel and know you are correct! I can’t handle those long days in the saddle like you can!
@@JustPlainCommonSense haha, I thought your name sounded familiar. Thanks for the support.
Long distance riding is kind of my passion. You get used to it after some time. But a good seat, highway pegs, and heli bars help tremendously.
Yes that Corbin looks much more comfortable than the one on my ST. I have a PA model with the driver only seat. I can only ride the bike and hour or so before I need to get off of it due to seat discomfort. How long would you say you could ride with that seat comfortably? It looks like it would be a great improvement for my bike but wanted some feedback before deciding on which replacement seat to chose.
In another popular video I watched the second owner of an ST1300 lift the front of the tank too high ! ..You guessed it , the bottom hose (between the 2 tanks) split. It waited for the most remote location to occur , & it's a bastard size like a radiator bypass hose on an old V8. Go buy a spare one from Honda & save it for a rainy day! Good video ,well planned out..
Great tip. Thanks for the comment!
By comparison, Honda CB1100 - remove side cover by removing ONE Allen bolt. Remove air box cover by removing 3 Phillips screws. Replace filter. What were those engineers thinking? Good video though!
I know! It’s a wonder those filter ever get changed by an owner.
It sounds like the CB1100 uses the same setup as a CB919 Hornet. It takes a couple minutes...
I have the same bike and I always make it by myself. Whats about the valves? Do you make the setting also by yourself?
I was just told a few days ago that the valves are manually adjusted. I had no idea! I'm selling it so I won't be going down that path.
It's a Honda. No need to check the valve unless youve been bouncing it off the rev limiter for years
Do NOT use a Phillips screwdriver on the ST. Japanese vehicles use *JIS* screws and that's what's needed ESPECIALLY for small screws that are tight.
Okay. Good info. I ordered a JIS screwdriver and paid a good bit for it. When it arrived, it was a Phillips.
@@JustPlainCommonSense Sorry to hear that. Amazon has JIS for decent prices as does McMaster-Carr. They aren't priced like Harbor Freight disposables (though I find good deals there from time to time).
Here's a pic of a JIS screwdriver held in place by the screw. You can't do that with a Phillips and that's why they work on Japanese stuff much better than Phillips.

When we should change the air filter? Thank you
Like most everything in life, it depends. If you are riding in dusty conditions, you should change it more often. The owners manual says to Replace the air filter every 12,000 miles!
I have to change my air filter, but I'm afraid to drop bolts into engine. Its possible to find bolt when I drop it into? Is this happened to you?
I guess anything is possible but i seriously doubt you will drop bolts into the engine while changing the air filter. Never happened to me.
@@JustPlainCommonSenseI trust you and I will do this as soon as I can ride. My tank is full and I think will be heavy to hold it with thin hardware?
Don't use Philips screwdrivers on japanese bikes. They are JIS fitment. Japanese industry standard.
Should be readily available from good stockists.
Great info on the tank fittings.
Ha! I ordered a JIS driver a few years ago. It said it was JIS on the handle and P2 on the shaft.
I don't have a prop rod :'(
Look hard. I can’t imagine why anyone would remove that prop rod.
@@JustPlainCommonSense it's a 2009 police bike so it's been a while. I can imagine them losing it
